Passenger door WON'T UNLOCK with remote/switch
Has this happened to anyone? My passenger side door will not unlock by the remote, or even the button inside the car (it does sometime, but most of the time it doesn't). When I press the button, the little lock **** on the door itself looks like it's trying to move, but can't. I'm able to unlock it manually by just opening the door from the inside.
1) Anyone had this problem and know what is most likely the cause?
2) I'm out of warranty--how much $$ are we talking about to fix it?
Thanks!

i had the same issue its the door lock actuator. you will need to remove the inner door liner, take off the window shield, remove the window, remove the rails, take off the door handle and replace the lock. i believe the piece was in the 100-150$ range from chad@riverside..talk wiht tony or jason over there and im sure they can hook you up with a great price.

if it is the solenoid or actuator, would it be doing this?... looking like its trying to unlock, but sometimes not working, but then other times working like normal?
