I have a keyless entry system for my car. Every winter, especially when it gets cold, I am not able to get into my car through the drivers side door. When I press the unlock button, it attempts to unlock, but because the drivers side lock doesn't open completely, it relocks itself. I have to press the button and open the passenger side door before it relocks to get in. Until my car warms up enough, I can not maually open the door from the inside or with a key. HELP!!!

Hi spritefreak,

Just want to confirm this. Does using the key to unlock with driver door key cylinder works, and if not, what is the symptoms like? Key would not turn or it turns but is restricted?
