Greetings, Driver's door lock does not lock while the door is open. Locks fine when it is shut, with the key, or with the auto lock switch or flip lever from the inside. Even locks fine from the passenger auto switch as long as the driver's door is closed. Took the door panel off and took out the latch. When the latch is rotated closed the lock mechanism turns fine, lcking and unlocking correctly. When the latch is in the open position the pin blocks the lock from rotating. Nothing "appears" to be broken or bent. Seems as though it was designed that way to prevent people from locking their keys in the car. Could this be possible? Regards, Robin
