Door lock don't lock S60

2013 S60
If I wasn't already bald, I would have pulled ALL my hair out. Now, the situation...
Initial issue: Door Open symbol on dash...car believed that the driver's door was open, thus would not lock the doors or fold the mirrors. I had access to a new door lock actuator...did that last week...Nothing! With encouragement from Tech, I took the door off, opened the harness coupling between door and car body. I found a broken wire (thin green wire with a black stripe). Soldered and put the system back together. NOW....mirror folds, dash warning that the door is open has disappeared, alarm activates, actuator clicks, BUT THE DOOR WILL NOT LOCK!
Did I miss another broken wire? I really did a hunt when I was in there. Did the broken wire short the system and fail the new door actuator (even though it clicks when you press the key fob).... Man, I hate to have to take it all apart again.
Does anyone have a schematic of the door to let me know what the thin green/ black wire is that I repaired. Is there a wire specific to the lock? IS there a fuse?
Again, I apologize for the repeat posts, but this does two things 1. possibly provides me with info 2. Allows me to vent so I can relax later. Alan

    Door lock don't lock S60

    I am surprised that there was only 1 wire at fault. Usually, enough insulation melts for several wires to go bad.

    Does the door lock button on the door work? The button by the window controls, not the one on top of the door sill.

    OR, you could try locking/unlocking the door 3 times using the manual key. That is supposed to reset the computer.
