Just started to check today-thanks
The driver's side passenger door is my problem door. Intermtiiedly the locking works fine. Other times will not work at at all. Got the door panel off. Tomorrow I will take the lock and actuator out and check mechanical and electrical connections. I think the acuator is bad. However, I do hear a slight "clunking" noise in the offending door when I lock and unlock all doors. It is just not as loud as the other doors. We shall see.
