problem with door locks
My door locks are screwed... keyfob does nothing at all except turn on the interior dome light. The inside doorlocks make a noise like they're trying to lock and unlock but the lock/unlock indicator barely budges and never locks or anything. Anyone had the same problem or know how to fix or replace?

wow, me too, they (it?) try to push or pull the lock pins but just dont get it, but with my locks, the key is now having trouble opening the door(nothing does)keyless,door switches). i have to jiggle the hell out of it for a little bit. i talked to a shop guy and he looked at what it was doing and said that id have to start paying $150 a door to replace actuators (i think thats what he was trying to explain) as a "shot in the dark" kinda deal. so i told him to go suck it and im not so lazy yet to go to the stealership yet. long story short my trucks broke that way too.

I also have a 2000 and sometimes both mine do that same thing. But most of the time its just the passanger door. Im going to the junk yard to find a few small parts. And im try to find one with power locks and get the accuators. And see if they work. Because the guy at the junk yard here said $20 a peice. So you cant really go wrong.

For the "jiggling key" problem, I had the same thing on my 98. Stuck the key in, and it wouldn't turn at all. Squirted some WD 40 inside the keyhole, and now it works like a charm. For the power locks, you need new lock actuators. This happened in my Mustang, wasn't too hard to replace. Took about 45 minutes to do.
