Door unlocks but doesn't lock

I recently started having an issue with my driver side door.

Two keys I own unlock the driver side door, but don't lock it.

Button in the dashboard on the inside does the same.

Passenger side opens and closes. Drivers side doesn't open.

Using the actual key, I'm able to lock the door without any resistance, so it doesn't seem to be a mechanical issue.

Seems like a coding issue of some sort. I had some weird behavior with the windows not closing all the way before I replaced my battery. There was a procedure I followed to reset them.

Anyone ever run into this?

Thanks all.

Could be your drivers side door lock actuator, just to confirm your passenger side locks and unlocks but your drivers side unlocks only?

Really appreciate the response. I am going to check codes and read up a bit more before I take this route but thanks for the input and link.
