I can lock it using the key, but then only the driver door locks, not the others..
This occured after i had a flat battery, and needed to jump start the car. Not sure if it happened right after, but noticed it the next day. Also i got a bit of water on the door, while keeping it open and replacing the mid consoll..
Any ideas.? Is it the actuator that has failed.? Any thing i can try to test.?
Are there a DIY on the forum for this job.?
BTW, i tried my other key set, and it was all the same.
Thanks.

Sounds for sure your actuator has failed. I just replaced mine today. The directions within the X5 forum to remove / replace are excellent. I ordered my replacement actuator parf from Vertex autoparts (Miami, FL) - saved nearly $100 over dealer pricing. Put the new part in today - works great now. There is also a video on Utube on how to remove the drivers door panel.
