Default Drivers door not automatically locking??

I have just noticed that for the past two days my driver’s side door will not lock automatically when using the lock button on the door or remote. It will unlock automatically with the door button and remote, but won’t lock. Any ideas?? Could it just be a programming issue????

Interesting, I have occasionally had the opposite problem.... passenger's door will not unlock (and only when the wife is standing by).

Go figure :confused:

Hi guys -- it's a common failed part on the C5. Over the first 18 months of my car's life, the switches in both doors eventually failed and were replaced under warranty. In my case, it started as an intermittent problem and the frequency increased until I couldn't tolerate it any longer. :seeya
