I have a 2005 Acura rsx type s. I replaced the drivers side door lock actuator after the remote wouldn’t work at all and that fixed it for about a week. Now the lock button doesn’t work, but the unlock works perfect. Any ideas would be appreciated.

 

Maybe try reprogramming your key fob remote....NOTE: It is important to maintain the time limits between the steps. Make sure the doors, the hood and the tailgate are closed.

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
   
2. Within 1 to 4 sec., press the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit built into the power window master switch.
   
3. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.
   
4. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch ON (II).
   
5. Within 1 to 4 sec., press the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit built into the power window master switch.
   
6. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.
   
7. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch ON (II).
   
8. Within 1 to 4 sec., press the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit built into the power window master switch.
   
9. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.
   
10. Within 4 sec., turn the ignition switch ON (II).
    
11. Within 1 to 4 sec., press the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit built into the power window master switch.
    
12. Confirm you can hear the sound of the door lock actuators within 1 to 4 sec., then push the transmitter lock or unlock button again, or the code will not be stored.
    
13. Within 10 sec., aim the transmitters (up to two additional ones) whose codes you want to store in the keyless receiver, and press the transmitter lock or unlock buttons.
    
    Confirm that you can hear the sound of the door lock actuators after each transmitter code is stored.
    
14. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and remove the key.
    
15. Confirm proper operation with the transmitters.
    
    NOTE: Once the programming mode is entered, the remote button must be pressed a second time. If the button is not pressed, or if the ignition switch is turned OFF, the programming for all remotes will be cancelled.

It came back for a couple hours randomly today. I’ll have to try that out, thanks for the reply.
