OK. I am having the same problem. When I use the key remote to lock/unlock my doors, only the passenger side door lock will move up or down depending on wether I'm locking or unlocking. The driver side will once in a while barely move, kind of like a small jerk attempt to either lock or unlock. It has not been working for about 3 months now.
I don't here a buzz noise when moving the lock/unlock switch, but as I said before, it will sometimes move a little bit. More than likely it's the actuator, but just want to make sure.

Thanks.

well you need to test it to see if it is the actuator.

Ok I think mine are out also.. Question for you.. If the actuators are out would it cause the stock lock/unlock remote not to work at all..?? I mean the lights dont flash anymore or anything not to mention dont lock and unlock.. Just wondering.. Cause I figured if the actuators were out the lights would probably still flash..??
Oh yeah one more thing... I have extended warranty and am at 32000 miles would this be covered..
Anyone get as sick of them giving out stats as much as I am...it gets a little ridiculous...."Ausmus is 4 for 10 against Garcia when the guy in section G, seat 5 drinks 5 beers, eats 3 hot dogs and goes to the pisser twice"..$hit.

yes, when the actuators go out, the remote wont work. Well if one is out, it will lock the door that works, but not flash the lights or anything.
It might be covered, you would have to call and see. If it isnt, just buy a new lock assembly, unless you know how to remove the actuator from the assembly. I didnt.

hey just wondering did u ever get a chance to post the diy pic... b/c i plan on chaging both of mine and they been dead and i just now seen this thread so if you can post pics that would be great.. thanks in advance...
My DIY is suppose to just support what he has written with pictures
Mine starts at after u have the old door lock assembly disconnected and out of the car. I think streetglowers DIY missed this part but I had a hard time getting the rod from the door lock piece that has the red oval on it out of the old door lock assembly. This is what I had to do with it. I took my vise grips and bent the metal piece surrounding it so it would come out easier like this:
Theres another rod that u have to reuse from the old lock assembly its the rod from the inside door handle that stretches across the whole door basically. Well, heres two pictures I put together and basically just connect the rods according to number. If u need more details ask me or refer back to streetglowers original DIY
BTW...the rod on number 1 is fake I copied the number 2 rod coz I took the picture w/o number 1 rod connected hehe. I need to work on my photoshop skills but whatever it works. You can see what the rod really looks like in the 2nd picture above
Another thing there is a rubber sleeve that hangs down from inside the door. The door lock assembly goes rite behind that. I thought I broke it after I took out the assembly, but I guess it suppose to be able to slide up and down and swing back and forth as a guide for the window. So dont freak out when u see that. Plus when ur about to connect all the rods back and u have the assembly inside the door. I would suggest screwing in the three bolts on the side of the door to hold the lock in place while ur connecting the rods. Dont tighten the bolts all the way just in case u need to take them coz the rods tend to get stuck in places inside the door before u connect them which happend to me.
Anyways, its really simple once u get in there and get er done lol.

now if anyone can figure out how to take out that actuator, please post up. If you can do that, you will save even more money as that is the original problem, but I replaced the whole lock assembly pictured above because I couldnt figure out how to remove it from the assembly.
