My 1997 Elite has just been similarly affected.  The drivers door opened and locked as usual on the remote yesterday morning, and hey presto, 30 minutes later I tried again and the door would not open on the remote, even though the locking snib inside raises and lowers on the remote.  Opening the rear door and pushing down the snib and then pulling it up, and the drivers door will open on the handle from the outside.

Any thoughts chaps

By the way, it was our first frosty morning of winter here yesterday morning, so I opened the door no problems to turn the motor on.   Switching off after 5 minutes and relocking was no problem, but 30 minutes later, door would not open on remote.

Trawling through old posts suggest a sluggish locking motor due to the cold, but it still refused to work all day

Door lock motor will be the problem, replace as per our guide in maintenance section

The central locking seems to have self healed today, with no re-occurrance of yesterday's problem
