Faulty door lock actuators. You have to go into the door to replace them. They are riveted to the door shell, so you'll need a big rivet gun. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

Ok I will have to give that a try. I will look in to replacing all 5 of them. Thank you for your time (link deleted) will these ones work fine?

Can't tell you the quality of those parts, but mostly everything is made in Chiwanda. I went ahead and deleted the link, so you won't get in trouble around here. Let us know how it turns out. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

brr86 : Did they ALL go screwy all at once? Anything like a flood in its history? I've never found all actuators go all at the same time. The few were weak relays worked some with engine running (higher voltage) and less able when engine off a clue. BTW - That rivet gun isn't cheap and mandatory to do most of these type things, T
