The other day I arrived home turned off the engine and tried to lock all the doors with the control on the driver's side door. Didn't work. Tried the passenger side door with no luck. Tried the key fob and the horn would beep as if the doors locked but they didn't. Have also found that the power doors won't work either. Replaced the fuse but still have the same problem. Help!

Have you checked relays under the hood?

I took out the fuse that was related to the power doors but when I went to AutoZone to replace it they said it wasn't burnt out. The fellow wanted checked the accessories relay but found out he didn't have a match for it. Will check the relay tomorrow. Thanks.

Let me know what you find. Something has stopped the power from getting to the locks. If the relay is good, you will need to remove the main switch on the driver's door and check to see if there is power to it.

Hi! Was finally able to check the relay and it was good. Had to take it to our local car mechanic and he said he had to reset the doors and locks. Didn't explain what that was all about but they work now.
Thanks for your suggestions and help. Much appreciated.

I'm glad it's fixed. Maybe it was the body control module that needed reset.

Take care and let us know if you have questions in the future.
