Default Help with power locks.

My power locks don't work.
I have checked the fuses.
I have tried a different switch and a different lock control unit.
Does anybody have any idea of what could be wrong with my locks and a fix for it?
Thanks.

Ok, for that one I don't remember the exact wire color but it's usually yellow/black wire going into the moduel and the is the 12v + feed. With a meter or test light make sure it is hot and I'll dig out my book and check the schematic for u.

I think you can check it by simply removing the door handle panels and remove the wiring clip from the switch.

Yes, the gray box inside the door, kinda resessed in the upper front. The wire is white/green that is 12v + feed.

Make sure it is getting a good ground as well (the black wire is 12v -) depending on what u use to check the ground. If u have a meter put the red lead on a known 12v + wire and the black lead to the black wire and u should get a 12v reading.
