Usually I can fix stuff myself but these door locks will get to me when I press the button on the door. I had clicking in the back on the right hand side but all my doors I have to manly lock. Will you please help me out?

We need to start checking for voltage at the actuators but I am thinking that if none of the locks are working then the VSM is the issue.

Also, if you are hearing a clicking noise then we need to find where that is. If it is in the rear on the right side then that may be the VSM module as well as that is above the right rear wheel well.

Here is a guide that will help with checking the voltage:

Below is the info from the wiring diagram and the location of it.

Please let us know if this is what is clicking and if so, it most likely needs to be replaced.
