My doors lock fine but when i go to unlock, only the passenger side will unlock. There isnt even a pulse on the drivers side when i unlock. I ordered 2 new relays and replaced both of them, the one under the radio pocket and the other behind the drivers seat. I checked the fuse in the fuse box and tested the door lock itself, solenoid etc to make sure it works. I am stumped. Is there a hidden fuse somewhere or something i might be missing? The only thing i can think of thats left is do continuity test on the wires from each point. I really hope there is something else i can try here. :( I spent $65 on those new relays and didnt get anything out of it. Please help, Thank you for your time.
 
Find a way to chaeck and see if the actuators are getting power when you push the unlock button. Cause your lock and unlock are 2 different wires and they normally read around 12 volts when activated. Maybe your unlock wire isn't sending the power. Also you might wanna try checking the control unit of the keyless entry and see if that unit went bad.
 
There is no power going to the actuator to unlock on that side. Could the control switch on the door panel be bad for the unlock part? Also from what i understand, the factory alarm control box doesnt have anything to do with locking and unlocking if i have an aftermarket alarm hooked up to the lock and unlock. The door wont unlock on that side manually or by remote. I am willing to try anything, but what would your suggestions be next. Replace the switch on teh door panel? Get another factory alarm box? Do continuity test on all wires ":cry: i really want that as last resort, since the wires go under the radio pocket into another relay and back behind the seat. Let me know what i should do next. Thanks
