This is my first post having purchased a 1999 Omega 3 litre Elite Estate late last year.  Prior to that I had Ford Scorpio Ultimas but rust problems caused me to change.  I now have a problem.  When unlocking the door with the remote control the driver's door button does not fully rise up and the door remains locked.  The other three doors and tailgate can be opened.  If I use the key in the driver's door lock the four buttons open OK but on returning the key to a vertical position for removal from the lock the driver's door button relocks.  The key is also very difficult to remove from the lock.  Has anyone else had this problem and solved it.  I would appreciate any ideas or suggestions.

Worth lubing the mech (including linkages), and whilst you have doorcard off, replace microswitches in locking motor

Thanks for the reply.  An auto electrician says the problem lies with the driver's door "actuator".  Presumably this is the driver's door central lock motor.  If anyone has one of these for sale please let me know.
Thank you.

Repairing them is a option
