sounds like you need to check the wiring in the door posts.

Hi gregers,

I examined the wiring when I swapped it from each door, even re-taped it and sprayed with silicone! The locks worked in the old door, so it's unlikely both sets of wires have simultaneously developed a fault. Also, as I said in the post, you get all the whirrings and clicks from all five lock mechanisms as normal but only the the "new" doors don't lock. Quite strange really!
