The power door locks quit working. You can lock/unlock either door with the key or manually from inside, but you can't use the switch on either door or the keychain. When you try to lock/unlock with the keychain fob, the lights flash but the doors don't unlock. Also, tried to find a fuse for the door locks and couldn't in the fuse box or under the hood. There are no blown fuses in either location and nothing labeled door locks. Please help.

Ok so if I understand correctly the door locks work but only manualy right? So with that said I need you to do some checking then let me know if you digital multi meter so we can test some things ok. For now I need you to check a few fuses in the fuse box. Fuse number 11 should be 10 amp and fuse number 5 should be 20 amp and fuse number 26 should be a 20 amp. Get back to me with what you find and we will do some tests from there.

Yes all the fuses are good, and the locks only work manually from inside or outside with the key. When try to lock it from the keychain there is a clicking noise in the fuse box but not when you push the button on the inside of the door.

Ok now I need you to find the central timer module behind the left kick panel. Once you have this in site I need you to find the dark blue wire and the pink wire with the black stipe. Now use you meter set on the 20 volt setting and probe these wires one at a time and push the unlock see if you get power these are to your unlock relays. Now find the orange wire with the black stripe and do the same except push the lock botton as this is to your unlock relay. Let me know what you find here and we will go from there.
