Default Remote used whilst engine running

Hi - Im running an `99 S40

I`m afraid the remote was used to lock up there car ( from outside )whilst the engine was still running ( with the other key ) - now the drivers door dosent lock anymore from outside with the remote ( all other doors do ) - but it does look as if its locked ( lucky in some ways ) as the button is down the same as all the other doors that are locked

any help appreciatted - thank you

The remote should be disabled when the ignition is on ... strange ...
