Nissan Micra locking itself
My friend has a 2004 Nissan Micra, but the driver’s door locks itself. It has now got so bad that she has to climb over the passenger’s seat to get in and out. She has tried to use the remote button on her key fob to unlock the door, but it remains locked. Any ideas?

The reason will probably be moisture inside the lock servo. Might be able to drive it out with WD40 if she can gain access to it. Otherwise will have to dismantle the door, try to fix it, look for a loose earth and if it can't be fixed she'll have to replace it.
