Keyless Entry WTF!

Just picked up my 03 evo 8 two days ago and got a keyless entry remote that needed to be programmed. Searched all the threads and found out how and did it just like it said and it worked sort of. i can lock all the doors but my driver side doesnt lock for some crazy reason so i started thinking wtf somethings wrong so i pressed the lock on the actual door and all the doors lock but drivers side!!! i have to manually push the button over or use the key plz help!!!!

Mine does the same thing. The actuator on that door may be going.

It sounds like theres an issue in the drivers door itself (switch, actuator, wiring). Where at in Va Beach are you located. I could help you out.
