    I recently purchase this truck and found an issue with the door lock buttons on both the drivers side and the passenger side. When you try to lock the doors they only click but do not lock the doors. Any suggestions as to what the issue is and possible solutions.

    Is it the switches or the locks? Does the fob work?

    I have attached 2 photos from the manual. It says nothing about a FOB. I suspect it is strictly a manual lock and unlock switch. Doesn't appear to have anything to do with the ignition switch.
