SOURCE: Drivers power lock will not unlock with remote.

the door lock actuator is defective, they get really hard to move when they go bad, that is why the difficulty with the key.

SOURCE: I have a 1999 Subaru Impreza- Remote locking

First, it may seem obvious, but check the fuses associated with the remote unlock. Next, go to Autozone or somewhere like that where they have a remote tester. That will tell if the remote is functional. If the remote works and the fuses are good, see if you can find out how to program remotes to it. It may have forgotten the code for that remote.

Testimonial: "Thanks for the tips, i'll do some investigation.. I'm amazed at the quick reponse! "

I have a 2001 Outback Ltd Wagon. Driver's door is closed and locked....and won't unlock with remote/ keyless entry/ key. Any help would be great!

You will have to remove the seat from the other side ,then get the door panel off to see what the problem is ,offhand i cannot think as the lock should be seperate and even in a failsafe position it should open from the inside so i can only assume that a metal link bar had dropped off and jammed the lock into the locked position but no doubt iam wrong as i very often am but the only way to find out is to get the door panel off

Where is the re-set button to program a remote door lock for my 2000 Subaru Forester?

Obtain all keys/remote controls. Remove driver's side kick panel/lower 'A' pillar trim. Connect central locking registration connectors (white) - black wire and black/blue wire Fig. 2 . Unlock the vehicle using the key. Program first key/remote control as follows: Press unlock button Fig. 1 [1], then lock button [2]. The door lock should lock and unlock in sequence confirming programming of first key/remote control. Repeat programming procedure for remaining key(s)/remote control(s). Once the last key/remote control is programmed disconnect central locking registration connectors. Check operation of all programmed keys/remote controls.

For 2001 Forrester Subaru - Front Windshield Washer fuse

If it makes noise, it's not the fuse. Most likely the discharge nozzles are stopped up. Try blowing compressed air into them from the outside.
