sticking lock

The door lock on my driver's door seems to be sticking. at first i thought it was the battery in the keyless entry pad but that wasn't it. sometimes it will unlock and lock but it will not pop up like it is supposed to do, it moves kinda slow. i've been having to unlock the door with my key. not sure how exactly to go about fixing this so any suggestions would be helpful.

Try spraying WD-40 inside the door with the window up. It won't mess up the electrics in the door like some oils will. If it has the lock **** on top, you can unscrew it, and spray down. it will lube the lock linkage, and power lock assembly.

Leo_T's suggestion sounds "on the money". There is another product you may want to consider for lubricating your locks. Check out CorrosionX.
It is a great product and is recommended for protecting electrical connections.
