Default 1997 Civic power door locks TRY to work

Hello everyone,

So I bought a 1997 Civic LX four door M/T. I fixed a couple of things on it already, but the power door locks are giving me problems.

Whether I use the switch or move the drivers door lock handle up and down, here's what happens:

Push the switch to unlock. I hear actuators clicking, and the R/R door lock handle moves a little bit. The drivers door lock works fine. The other two don't move, but I think I hear the actuators clicking. If I cycle through the switch 5-6 times, the problem gets worse. The R/R door lock stops moving even a little bit, and the drivers lock stops working at all. The clicking gets quieter too. Its like the last bit of fun you get from a battery operated toy before it dies. Wait a while, and it works as described above.

What do you think is the problem?

Thanks for reading!

Sounds like bad lock actuators.
