Land Rover Repair: P38a Central Locking Fault, door latch, die grinder

Question
Hi all.
Problem began today after no signs of hiccups whatsoever.
Inadvertantly pressed the lock button on key fob whilst engine was running. Resul?
When pressing unlock on remote out of ignition! The locks on 3 doors and tailgate actuate as they should. Front Passenger door button rises but remains solidly locked. ALL locks then re lock within 3 seconds or less To gain access and exit car, have to press the remote unlock button and quickly open doors using handles. Locking then comes in again and locks all unopened doors. Tried the same with F passeger door but will not budge.
I am disabled and fid this a darn nuisance. any ideas guys??

Tried using spare keys but no difference. Tried reprogramming key fob but no difference or change

Answer
It sounds like the RF door latch has chosen this moment to fail.  Land Rover has a service buletin that tells how to open superlocked doors.  You can buy a day's access at www.landrovertechinfo.com if you want to try it yourself.

At Robison Service we generally remove the rear door and then use a die grinder to cut the striker plate for the front door.  Then we can open the door and swap the latch.
