Default door lock doesnt work

got a 98 civic lx and my door locks stopped working. i changed the switch but nothing happens. someone said there was a relay box or something in the door that could b the culprit. idk. my power windows still work tho.
any thoughts?

How did you test it? Does it get voltage from the battery? Click the fuses link in my signature.
