I have a question about the door locks. I just put a new actuator in the passager door about 2 months ago. Just recently the driver door one stopped working. The key still works to lock/unlock, but the powerswitch on the driver and passenger door does not lock/unlock it but it does for the passerger door fine. Even the keyless entry for the car works only the passenger door. I was wondering if this would be an electical problem or if it would be that I just need another lock actuator? I ask that because last time the actuator stopped working I could not do anything with the door it was stuck closed. Thanks

Follow this link to fix your door lock actuator problems http://jrichker.stangnet.com/Mustang_tech/door_actuator_fix/1_of_8_door_actuator.htm

Stuck with door lock actuators that don't work and don't want to pay the $50+ for a new one? Tried the junkyard ones and found that they last six months and freeze up?

A new actuator for less than $4. Fix one side for $17, do both sides for only $23. I don't sell parts, I don’t make any money off of the upgrade, I just tell you how to do it cheaply and easily.
