Replying to: nathaneboyd (Jul 07, 2008 12:45 pm) you may have a bad door lock solenoid I haven't looked at mine, but there may be an access panel on the inside of the door, that you may be able to get through to manually unlock it this will also in theory give you access to the solenoid to replace it. If there is an access

Replying to: navydad4 (Dec 22, 2007 1:11 pm) They use the same system in BMW's for there power lock systems. It is an entirely electronic system and the turning of the key just completes a circuit to signal the solenoids to pop the locks your best bet is to have a lock smith get the door open and either charge or replace the battery. Its a crappy set up but without battery issues works exceptionally well. It actually makes for less moving parts, less to break.
