Default Central locking 3 door

My pass door won't lock with the central locking but will unlock and some times the boot won't unlock

Any ideas why guys

Check the microswitch in the drivers door. If that is good, look at the loom in the drivers door between the door a pillar.

Mine did exactly the same thing for about 2 months then weirdly stopped doing it over night.
No help to you I know but it might just go away.

Might be the actuators or operating rods a bit stiff, on thing I notice is if my battery voltage is low then sometimes passenger door doesn't work.
