Cool power lock switch not working!!

I currently just purchased a 99 civic with power locks but it don't work. I checked fuse but that was o.k. Any other ideas what I should look for?

Re: power lock switch not working!!

Is there a power lock button next to the door handle? I'd start there, take the handle out and see if that switch is still plugged in. Then I'd use a volt/ohm meter to check the wiring. Then check for broken wires in the door jamb.

Do you have a remote? Does it work?

probably the door lock actuators are dead.
The small motors in the DLA rust and seize up or burns out.
Happens often.
