I had this issue with my Audi A3, there's a small microswitch inside the driver door locking mechinism when triggers when the door is closed telling the car the door is closed.
These little switches either get gunk around them stopping them working but in most cases, the little plastic switch wears away.
I had to remove my lock, open it up and glue a extra bit of plastic on to the switch so it can actually press down.
in the mean time, be carefull not to leave you keys in the car and close the door becuase the car will not recognise the door was opened and closed and will automatically lock the doors, with your keys inside. this is a common fault among most cars, not just jags.
