The driver side door lock quit work with the key fob but works with the key. Now all of a sudden the driver side rear door lock is doing the same thing. Could this be the actuators or is there a fuse that controls these?

I have never had this problem.

Check battery in key fob and see if fob works auto parts can check it. Then have a mechanic scan for codes.

Only issue if it were the battery in the FOB all locks would not work not just one or two. No codes

For the no codes was it checked by a mechanic or auto parts scanner as those won't pic up any codes like that they only pic up engine/trans codes. It may very well be the actuators or a short in system like wires broken which will have to be checked to see if they get power or not. It cold also be a clip broken as to why they aren't working.

Hello,

I will be taking over this thread, does the car have an intelligent key?

Best, Ken

Hello,

The best way to check this problem is to use a test light which you can then tell if the actuators are getting a power signal.

Here are some guides and a wiring diagram so you can run some easy tests to confirm the actuator or BCM failure.

Please let us know what happens.
