Default Front Passenger Door Lock

A couple months ago my central locks stopped working. Figured out that it was the fuse under the rear rear passenger seat. Replaced it and worked 4.0. Now my Front Passenger door lock will not respond to any electrical means of opening the door (central lock switch and key fob). The only way is to manually reach over and pull it up and push it down. When I hit the central lock button it sounds like I can still hear the clicking throughout the car but the lock doesn't move. Any ideas?

As has been typical of jaguar door latches since the dawn of time it probably just needs some lube. Spray the crap out of the door latch mechanism and work the lock knob up and down several times respray and repeat until proper operation is restored. lube the rest of the latches while you're at it.
