thanks. i searched around but couldnt find anything as the problem im having
Two things. Are you lifting up on the door handle when you close the door? otherwise it will not stay locked. Secondly, will the key turn? If not, the lock cylinder may be seized from lack of use.

If these two things checked out, the electric motor for the door lock may be bad. If I remember correctly, this is part of the door latch and it shouldn't be hard to find a replacement.
