But then you can leave the electrical portion connected via the harness and just try turning the center of the switch with a screwdriver - eg via the part that the lock interfaces with.

It should then be pretty obvious if there's an issue with the electrical portion or there's some mechanical problem with the lock assembly/barrel/tumblers etc.
