[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A door lock assembly for automotive vehicles comprising:a latch mechanism having a latch and pawl to hold a vehicle door in a closed position when the latch and pawl are engaged;a closer mechanism for bringing the vehicle door from a partially closed state to a completely closed state through operation of the latch mechanism;a locking/unlocking mechanism for bringing said vehicle door into a locked state to prohibit operation of the latch mechanism and into an unlocked state to permit operation of the latch mechanism; anda drive mechanism including a single motor acting as a drive source for actuating said closer mechanism and said locking/unlocking mechanism;said drive mechanism including:a first output lever associated with said locking/unlocking mechanism for reciprocating between a locked position, in which said vehicle door is in the locked state, and an unlocked position in which said vehicle door is in the unlocked state;a second output lever associated with said closer mechanism for reciprocating between an initial position and an active positions in which said vehicle door is brought from said partially closed state to said completely closed state; anda rotary member for reciprocating said first output lever between said locked position and said unlocked position and for reciprocating said second output lever between said initial position and said active position,wherein said rotary member rotates over a desired angle of rotation, at which said first output lever is at said unlocked position, to move said second output lever from said initial position to said active position and said rotary member rotates in a direction, at which said first output lever is at said locked position, which is opposed to the direction when said closer mechanism is operated.
