Default Dead power locks.


I have a 94 Accord EX Sedan. Since I bought the car the all power locks are dead. I searched and all i find are the buzzing sound when the actuators go bad. I checked all the fuses. Any other suggestions?? I want to fix this.

NOOOO. I said that I did a search and all I just find are posts about buzzing actuators. I know about that probelm.

Mine are dead, all 4 doors. No buzzing, no nothing. Even when I open with a key none of the other doors pop open. HELPPPPP

Have you tried the passenger side lock switch? When you lock (not unlock) the driver's door with the key, does it lock the other doors as well?

I'm going to assume that your answer to...

... is "no".

You need to check to make sure you are getting power and ground to the driver's actuator. If you have are, then the actuator is bad and you need to replace it. If you are not getting power and ground, then you need to check the wiring.

This would be the case if none of your locks work. If only one lock does not work, you need to go to the door in question, and test the solenoid for that door...
