Driver door lock HELP!

evl_twn · 11-01-2010, 12:27 PM

Hey guys, hoping somebody might have some insight to an issue im having. My driver door lock and master lock unlock switch DON'T WORK. If i unlock my truck with my keyless fob it will not unlock. The key still unlocks the door but nothing from the fob and the master lock unlock does not work on the drivers door. The fob still lock/unlocks the other 3 doors and the lock/unlock on the passanger door still works. Anybody have any clues?

sounds like the lock soleniod is out, they are about $50 on ebay and fairly easy to change

would the lock solenoid cause the master switch to not unlock any of the other doors though?

these trucks are also known for damaging wires in the door jam from day to day use. wires become crimped or damaged. especially with the re-doors but i've had it happen with my front driver door. the fob maybe working; however, the signal may not be reaching the door actuator due to a faulty wire. easy enough to check before you start replacing parts. stealership tried to sell me a power control module because my rear door wasn't responding when it was really just a wire. this is also an issue for the speaker wires as well.

hope this helps, good luck.

I didn't read it right, I didn't see it wasn't unlocking the other doors. Yeah, check your wires.

ok thanks guys, would it be near the connector plug for the front door or is it going to be in the cab?

In the rubber boot between the door and the body is where mine break.
