Check the small wire going to the starter motor these have a habit of becoming loose and stopping the starter working! If only one door is not working I'd be looking at that door! Wiring or motor! Can't see that stopping it starting

I have this problem with the remote not opening the drivers lock (FL1, TD4).
If I change the door lock assembly will I need to do any reprogramming?
Thanks
