The lock actuator links to the lock mechanism via a metal rod with a sprung clip that secures it at each end.
It could be that a clip has become loose and the actuating rod disengaged.
The attached pdf might help.

It was the rod that had come off, obviously not attached correctly. Working fine now 👍🏻
