Hi, One of the 4 doors does not always lock when I use the alarm remote or interior lock button. It always unlocks but doesn't always lock. The other 3 door locks work fine. How can I fix this?

You may have a faulty actuator or a loss in signal to the actuator to unlock or lock the door.

I would check for the signal to the actuator when the unlock/lock button is pressed. If it is there, you most likely have a faulty actuator.
