Remote locking failing. Drivers' door only one unlockable. None of other doors open even from inside. Tail door opens on remote. Taking car on holiday in two days... arrgggg!!!

My 2007 astra central locking went crazy doors not locking some wouldn't unlock ,tail gate not latching, hole locking system not working, no indicator flashes when pushing remote, wires from body to door inside rubber boot were broken , very hard brittle plastic coating on wires where they need to bend n flex

A plastic clip that holds the lock linkage is probably broke or worn. You need to pull of the inner door panel to see whats going on inside. Use the remote and see whats happening. It could be bent rod in door from someone using a slim jim to unlock it when they locked the keys in it at some point. Bend the rod and try the remote again untill it works properly.

My 2009 Sebring does the same thing occasionally but only the drivers door gets stuck (dead locked - even though the locks appear to pop up).
The solution I have found once this happens is:
1) The car needs to be driven (crawl in thru the passenger door) -even just a short distance
2) Engine shut off & doors locked with remote (after you've exited from the passenger door of course)
3) Leave turned off for 10 minutes
4) Doors will now open when unlocked with the remote

Try reporgraming it

1. Start with key out of ignition, drivers door is open all others closed and
drivers door is unlocked.
2. Insert key into the ignition (Do NOT Turn) and Pull key out.
3. Perform these steps within 40 seconds.
A. Using the power lock switch on the drivers door, perform 5 lock/unlock cycles
starting with lock. Use an even pace and try to go about one cycle per second.
(1Cycle = 1 lock and 1 unlock).
B. Close, then open drivers door.
4. Perform these steps within 40 seconds.
A. Using the power lock switch on the drivers door, perform 5 lock/unlock cycles
starting with lock. Use an even pace and try to go about one cycle per second.
(1Cycle = 1 lock and 1 unlock).
B. Insert the key in the ignition cylinder.
C. Turn the ignition to ON (Do NOT Start) then back to OFF.
D. Remove the key from the ignition.
5. Press any button on remote for a minimum of 1 second.
System should now lock and unlock doors once.

6. Close and open drivers door.
7. Press any button on remote for a minimum of 1 second. System should now lock and
unlock doors. Once to confirm programming, twice to indicate programming failed.
8. Repeat steps 5, 6 and 7 for additional remotes.

If I understand you correctly your saying that the only door on your van that you can unlock with a key or remote is the sliding side door and that all the other doors will not unlock with the key or the remote? If this is the case then the two front doors most likely have a problem with the fuse to the actuators so you should check the fuse in the fuse box which may be located either under the drivers dash or in the engine compartment on the drivers side over the wheel well.

the door lock actuator is defective, they get really hard to move when they go bad, that is why the difficulty with the key.

try this:

1. Start with key out of ignition, drivers door is open all others closed and
drivers door is unlocked.
2. Insert key into the ignition (DO NOT Turn) and Pull key out.
3. Perform these steps within 40 seconds.
A. Using the power lock switch on the drivers door, perform 5 lock/unlock cycles
starting with lock. Use an even pace and try to go about one cycle per second.
(1Cycle = 1 lock and 1 unlock).
B. Close, then open drivers door.

B. Insert the key in the ignition cylinder.
C. Turn the ignition to ON (Do NOT Start) then back to OFF.

Check door switch connection under door pad in drivers door. Sounds like the electrical connection that sends power from the main door (drivers side) to other door has failed or wiggled loose.

the reason the locks dont work more then likely there is a code stored in the bcm for a lock output circuit normally caused by one if not both of the sliding door acuators. even if you change the acuators the locks still will not work until the code is cleared.
