Red face AU11 Ute. Door lock.

Hi! All, my wifes AU!! Ute can be locked with the ign. key but not unlocked. While the key fobs are working, this is not a problem, however, sometimes there is a failure to communicate, I'm sure there is nothing rare about this but I would like some advice please.

You will probably find its the wrong key as such all AUs will lock with any key but wont open either that or the code has gone hay wire mite have to get it looked at by a dealer
