Default Door locks not operating???

Hey all.. it is a 2002 Disco II. We seem to be having some trouble getting the locks to open. When the keyless entry button is pressed, it makes a click noise but nothing opens. We have to use the key to get in. This electrical issue has happened before. Last time the car would not start and the key had to be turned on and off again to get it to start..
Once it was the back door lock that would not open. Is there a wiring harness somewhere that might be the culprit of all this? Thanks in advance!

Does one of your locks not open, even if you bump the key 2 or 3 times?
Try locking and unlocking the truck 3 times, slowly, to reset the system, if it still acts up get back to us.

Using the remote or the key from the outside.

You need new power door lock actuators.
www.roverlandparts.com for good used ones.

The drivers door lock controls all the other locks, if the drivers one does not unlock then neither will the others.
Replace the drivers door lock actuator and you shold be good to go.

Roverland parts only sells used parts, nothing new, they are a salvage yard.
Unless you are buying a t-case, transmission or the like they are all used.
On a DI it is a piece of cake to replace, on a DII not to much harder.
www.atlanticbritish.com if you want a brand new one.
