Default Driverside door lock

Hey guys, I am not sure what is wrong with my driverside door lock. It will not lock or unlock with the panel switch. I can lock the passenger door from the driver side but I can not unlock the passenger side. I'm hoping this is a quick and simple fix but I'm not sure where to start.

Check the wiring at the solenoid.... I think its actually part of the door latch though....

Yep, pull the door panel, follow the wires.

Could be the switch also. Swap it with the operating switch and see if the problem moves as well.
