I HAVE A 2008 CHEVY IMPALA LT - 25,000 MILES - MY REMOTE DOOR LOCKS - FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AND 2 READ DOORS STOP WORKING, MY REMOTE ONLY OPENS THE DRIVER DOOR LOCK - MY DRIVER DOOR THAT CONTROLS THE OTHER 3 DOOR LOCKS IS ALSO NOT RESPONDING TO THEM - I SEE THE LOCKS VIRABRATING BUT NOT RESPONDING ANY SUGGESTIONS? IS IT POSSIBLE A ELECTRICAL PROBLEM OR DO YOU THINK ALL 3 LOCK ACTUATORS WHEN BAD?

I have had a few of impalas with more than one lock actuators burnt out. Remove the door panel and lupe a test light in place of the actuator and see if it lights when working the switch .
