I have a 90 cherokee 4.0 with power locks, any time I hit the lock button they seem to struggle locking, including the hatch, any time I hit unlock the struggle unlocking also, the hatch lock works intermittenly too. my passenger side power lock control, also works intermittenly.
 
When I bought my '96 Cherokee two years ago I had the same problem. In my case, I took out every lock mechanism, cleaned them thoroughly with brake cleaner, and then lubed them with white lithium grease in a spray can. They have worked dependably ever since, except for an occasional problem with the left rear.
I have noticed on this forum, that some cherokees suffer from an electrical problem due to the wiring. You may want to search the forum for that information.
