Posted this in S2000 talk, but seeing if any locals have had this problem:
I go to unlock my car today using the remote and I find that the driver's side door isn't properly unlocking. It will momentarily unlock, and then quickly lock again. The lock switch on the door panel also appears to swing freely. I can't unlock the door using the key either. To get in/out, I have to unlock w/the remote and time it such that I open the door while it is briefly unlocked. This used to happen on a '99 Civic I owned, but only when it was cold. It's not that cold right now. Anyone deal with this before? I'm gonna take off the door panel this weekend and see if something came undone. It seems like something is keeping the door from becoming fully unlocked. It looks pretty silly when I am trying to get out of the car, I have to use the outside handle, hah.
