Mend Ford KA Ka Repair

How can I fix my Drivers side central locking? Ford KA?

Just picked up a friend who is emigrating Ford KA. Everything on it is fine bar 2 things.

1. Central locking is a bit quirky. Locks & Unlocks fine on Passenger side but Drivers side only locks. How can I fix this? Surely if its centrally locking it should centrally unlock?

2. Bonnet release lever has become ineffect. I'm having to pull the lever right back to the point of which it is now broken & pull the wire/cord independently? How much will it cost for a new one & is it easy to replace?

the drivers side door lock is sticking if you get some wd 40 and spray a lot of it in the lock it should start working again it can still be a bit stiff but it should start to work i had the same problem with mine.
