Cheapest and easiest port of call first. Pop the door card off and use a little penetrating oil around the lock mech. Operate a few times to work it in. If not better, try looking at the servo, sometimes they can get a bit tired with old age, but a little oil can sometimes ease these aswell. If knackered cheap enough from scrappy, or one of the fine fellows on here! :y :y
