    New to me 2010 Tacoma. Power door locks not working. When I hit the lock/unlock button the passenger rear door lock will attempt to unlock but that is the only thing that makes any noise or movement. I've replaced the driver side junction block/body ECU. No change. Checked all of the fuses/voltages, all clear. I'm getting ready to tear the doors apart to get to the actuators... Anyone else run into this? Is it possible that all 4 of the actuators are gummed up or crapped out?

    I had the same issue with the rear passenger side door in my 2013 DCSB. I replaced the actuator lock motor with a replacement off ebay (got a 2 pack for like 8 bucks). Pretty easy job just make sure to take things slow.

    Awesome. It looks like full lock assemblies are like $50-$80 for every other vehicle out there but Tacomas... $275. nice. Looks like I'm tearing my doors apart and replacing some motors. ;)

    Fob works, well at least the lights flash and I get a beep when locking... Just the doors don't lock or unlock. It's definitely the door locks. I actually disconnected the wiring connectors and sent 12v direct to the motors, no movement.. So it looks like my issue is fried actuator motors.
