If you have electric locks, the battery is what actually does the 'unlocking'. If the battery is dead, it obviously won't work. Many locks have a supplementary mechanical linkage to allow unlocking by turning the key in the door lock, but sometimes that mechanism is broken. Try unlocking the passenger side, as a backup plan.
