2002 ML55 central locking issue

All - Newbie here with my first issue!

When i use my key fob to lock the doors, every door except the drivers side door locks, but the alarm is activated....so if i open the door the alram goes off and the drivers door is not locked.

I can use the lock button on the central console, i can also just push the button down....many attempts to synchronize have failed...i even read the how to with teh manual on synchronizing the remote - that didnt work????

Any advice!!!!!?????????????????????

Thanks!!!!

This is not a cop-out response, but I'd take these kinds of electronic issues to the dealer.

i thought i would just post what happened...i took it into my MB dealer they charged $120 for a diagnostic to tell me what was wrong...came back and said it would be approx a $640 fix - $240 in parts for a broken actuator and $400 in labor!

So i said see ya and thought i would go somewhere else......one week later IT IS FIXED!! Dunno what went on - dunno what was wrong - but it works fine now
