Sounds like you have the age old “door ajar switch” fault. If you look at the dashboard message centre when trying to lock the the car it should tell you which one is indicating open.
The “door ajar switch” is part of the lock mechanism so if you can’t find a new one then second hand may be an option.

I just thought I could pull a fuse and use the drivers door with a key, it's the only door I use anyway and never did like $1,000+worth of door actuators banging up and down every time I unlock one door or move 5ft.

You may have noticed my recent post with a similar problem, which I've lived with for years..
Thought I'd revisit it again now since the window regulator has failed, as much easier to remove the door latch.
I actually replaced both front latches with brand new parts but bouncing door lock problem didn't go away. Tried a few used ones as well and again same door latch issue.
On my x202 the internal door latch micro switches seem to be glued in with a type of epoxy resin so virtually impossible to try and change those.
I suspect on mine it's the LHS that's faulty, which I thought odd as the drivers door has had the most use. So, I've ordered a know working used RHS latch (RHD vehicle with 'deadlocking' door latch) and will see if this works. If not I will have to probe further.
In my initial haste I wrongly bought a new RH front 'less deadlocking' which would mostly fit the LHD vehicles, meaning USA cars included. But that would be the passenger side in your case.
Anyhow good luck and if your's ends up being the front RHS I'm happy to sell it at a discount if your interested. Part number XR853044.
