Default power door locks

Ok so I know my car has it's little quirks but I'm trying to work all of them out. My newest one is when i lock the car with the key from the driver door it used to roll up the windows and lock all the other doors, and now when i lock it it only locks the driver door not the others like it used to. But when i unlock the car it works fine. What module or relay went bad and how would i fix this being it s getting annoying. I still love this car even though it has a mind of its own.

Don't you have remotes? You can Vag the car to roll up the windows via the remote. I know this didn't answer your question though.

I have remotes but they stopped working for some strange reason. I was doing research about this a while back and saw that the stock alarm system is junk. Also the alarm used to just go off for no reason. This car is wacky. Thanks jest

I would try replacing the batteries in the remote, then reprogramming them. Maybe your remote locking module is dying. Yes, the stock alarm isn't all that great.

Sounds good I just put new batteries in them and tried reprogramming them but was'nt to succesful do you have a write up on how to reprogram the remotes. If you do that would be great
Thanks Jest for the quick response

Thanks jest i'll try that tonight. i tried it a while back and it did'nt work maybe i did it wrong or got the wrong info. To cl the alarm thing hasnt happened in a while it was a freak thing for like a week but it is still relevant to the door lock thing being the red led used to light when i locked the car but now it does not and does not lock with the key from the outside only if i hit the lock switch on the inside. but it unlocks fine.
