I fixed the locking on my wifes car yesterday , on her car the button on the o/s door would only lock the o/s door , when the key was turned on either door only that door would lock , unlock .

I changed the latch on the n/s door and that sorted that side with the button and key , but the o/s key would still only work that door . I then removed the activation switch off the latch stripped it and cleaned the contacts and that fixed the problem of the o/s key only working that side .

in my corolla if i lock the driver door it locks passenger door. but its very temperamental when unlocking the doors. only now and again would the passenger door unlock when key is turned in drivers door. and sometimes the unlock button inside the door works without the key in the ignition and other times the key has to be turned to allow the unlock button to work. i dont have remote central locking. i just dont get it??????

It sounds like the contacts in the door lock could be corroded that coud explane why it only works sometimes . The problem with the lock button could be due to a bad connection . The easyest fix could be to change the lock with a second hand one . I might be able to find one for as i have a friend with a crashed corrolla g6

ya but i find that if the passenger door doesnt unlock when i unlock the driver door, the unlock button doesnt work then. the unlock button works when the passenger door unlocks when the driver door unlocks, if you catch my drift??? . completely defeats the purpose like :D

Then the problem could be with the control relay , check if this is clicking when the central locking is activated , if it is working then all that is left is the lock or wireing . I fixed a slimar problem with a 91 corolla a few years back , it was caused by broken wires in the o/s door .
