Power door lock not working on passenger s

Interior problem
2003 Toyota Rav4 4 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic 100230 miles

When attempting to lock/unlock the door(s) through the drivers side switch on the door, or the button on the key remote, the passenger door will not lock/unlock.
this problem suddenly started. Is it possible somebody tried to 'slim-jim' the door or is this a known faulty problem that can be easily fixed?

Hi ozaer,

Thank you for the donation.

The door lock actuators do give way over time and testings can be carried out to determine if it is faulty or a wirring circuit problem.

If the actuator is bad, replacement would be ewquired.
