Driver door lock won't lock unless manually pressed

I'd check for a blown fuse or a wiring/connector problem. Possibly the connector near the door hinge. Could be a bad solenoid. FSM (link in my sig) has wiring diagrams, fuse locations, &c. A cheap VOM will come in very handy.

Edit: It might be worth a shot to disconnect the battery, step on the brake pedal for a few seconds, then reconnect the battery. This will reset the computers that control the car. You will need to do a window reset and reprogram the radio presets afterwards. And the car may run rough for a while until the ECM relearns the engine. I don't have high hopes that it will fix your problem, but it's a lot easier than pulling door panels and wringing out wiring.
