Do they attempt to lock/unlock but not enough force to do so? When you lock/unlock at each door, do they resist or do they still move somewhat freely?

Typically, the locks get caked up with dust, dirt and dried up grease. You may need to just clean and relube them.

If that doesn't work, you need to check power and grounds. The lock/unlock relays are under the passenger side kick panel.

thanks. The actuators work. only lock with the remote does not work. Inside with the switches they work. ( but now I notice that sometimes inside acts strange to)

I will look for the relay. ( what is the kick panel) door or under dash?

Do you have a factory alarm or aftermarket?
