    Drivers side lock button on door panel doesn’t seem to actuate. Anyone else have this issue?

    anybody know some quick troubleshoot things to look at/try before I take the whole door apart to swap an actuator that might be perfectly fine?

    Pop out the switch panel and unplug and plug and see if it works.

    Does it lock/unlock from your key fob or using the key in the slot on the door?

    Has been like that before any mods were made, just have been using fob the whole time



    yup, works fine with fob which is why I felt like actuator was fine but idk if it’s the button hooked up to it or what. Would love to avoid taking door panel off to find out

    the passenger side button works fine

    You should be able to pop that switch controls out without taking the door apart and check the connection.
