My truck is a Ford F350 crew cab 4 door. My power door locks will not open or close from the master switch on the drivers side.

They will lock from the passenger side, but not open. It seems that they are opening slower and weaker that when the truck was new.

If there is a problem with the master switch, is there is way to test it. Perhaps there is a schematic of the lock switch.

Thank you very much.

From symptom description, I believe the passenger switch is more likely to be the cause as the two switches are connected in series.

DOOR LOCK SWITCH TEST
Remove door lock switch.
Check continuity using an ohmmeter.
Check continuity between switch terminals with switch in specified positions.
See appropriate DOOR LOCK SWITCHS table. See Fig. 1.
Replace switch as necessary and retest system operation.
