On the topics of power locks not working, mine didnt work when i bought the car and i checked the fuse, it was burnt, so i put a new one in, it doesnt work but sounds like its trying to, my guess is that the motor is seized and the guy before me kept trying them and finally blew the fuse when it go hot. Any suggestions would be helpful.

yeah, like wen i press my lock, i can see the lock on the passenger seat MOVING, but it just doesnt lock.

First i would try a bigger fuse and some lubricant on the motor...also make sure all wires are connected in the doors and that all lock parts are connected and nothing is broke(w-d40 them too)

Open up the door panels and make sure all is connected and then w-d40 the joints of the arms and such...

Putting a bigger fuse in would allow more amps to go to the motor then designed for, in turn if your motor was stuck youd burn it out really fast that way.
