Honda Door Lock Problem

I recently am having problems with my automatic door lock on my 01 Civic. It started with one lock not unlocking and now 3 don't unlock. HELP! Thanks!

more than likely the switch has got a bad connection, or the switch itself is going bad.

Could be 3 of the 4 door lock actuators, but highly doubtful.

Re: Honda Door Lock Problem (HondaDocket)

I had a similar electric lock problem on my 1990 Accord. First the electric locks would work intermittently, then one day they quit working all together. It turned out to be a bad solder joint on the lock control module circuit board. The relay terminal that connected to pin #3 was broken and was easy to locate by looking for broken solder on the bottom side of the board. After heating the joint with a soldering iron and applying a dab of solder it works good-as-new.
The door panel had to be removed, the lock control module removed and then opened. It was really a fairly simple repair.
