Can you open them with the key? If not its time for a new actuater..I need one too But if you can,its gotta be electrical.

The locks plug into the main harness under the drivers side dash, in the kick panel, Ther is a two wire connector, one wire is pink, the other is black/ white. I think the black/ white one is for the locks, and it should have power all the time. The other is for windows and has power with the key on. Hope this helps some.

You can also check the driver side switch connector out. Seems to me that if it is not passing current, nada happens.

Good luck.
