Door won't lock, no matter what 1999

The problem: My C70 Convertible's passenger door just won't lock. The lock button is down, the alarm is on, the driver door locks just fine, and all you have to is pull on the handle and it opens right up as if it were unlocked.

What I know:
1.) It feels like the usual mechanical action of an unlocked door is there when I pull it open.

2.) When opening the door from the inside, if the lock button is down, it stays down. It won't pop up.

3.) The locking latch and mechanism in the door look perfectly normal -- exactly like the one on the driver's side.

4.) The remote will make the lock button pop up or down -- but it doesn't matter.

5.) The lock switches (driver and passenger side) will make the button pop up or down -- but it doesn't matter.

So, to recap, it appears to be impossible to lock my passenger door. Any ideas?
