yeah mine did the same thing, what did you adjust on yours? with mine where the lever is i unscrewed the cable housing a little and it worked fine after that. just grab where the rubber boot covers the cable doing into the lever and unscrew it some. shoudl work after that. if not.???? take it in. they shoudl fix it for free.
good luck.

HR.

there is a fuse you can check and spares are already in ther box for you if you need one. probably just need to adjust the cable.

I was under the impression that the front locker was all mechanical and has no electric components at all. The front drive in and out is electrically activated, but not the locker.
