Fiesta '97-dodgy door lock
I have just bought a '97 Fiesta. The driver door will not unlock after locking (it will if it's just been closed) so has to be opened from passenger side. It hasn't got central locking-will this be an easy problem to sort or v. expensive?
Could anybody help please?! Thanks!

Only answer is to replace the lock. You can take the barrel out and file the locking pins - that's what I did. You could probably swap them over so the good one is on the driver's side.
