My driver's side door lock was recently picked. It won't lock or unlock by pressing the buttons and it also won't lock by manually pushing it. Could you please give me a cost as to how much it would cost to get it fixed?

It is difficult to provide any costing as we do not known what had been damaged.

Description indicates possibly the linkages have been disturbed and could be stuck. You need to remove the door trim to have a visual inspection and maybe realigning the linkages would work. However you would still have to get the door lock repaired which a locksmitch might be able to do.
