Electrical problem
1998 Mercury Villager Two Wheel Drive Automatic 73000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
I have a problem with all the door locks.When I attempt to lock the doors by using the inside lock button,the "switch" grinds "and often does not lock the doors--the same is true when I attempt to unlock.Also,all doors will sometimes lock"automatically" when I shut the drivers side door after the engine is started.And,when I attempt to unlock the doors,sometimes only one,two,etc. will lock or unlock.I never know what each door will do when I attempt to lock or unlock.Switches,motors??????????? Thanks.

I have been having the same problems with mine. I have been told that its the acuators, dont know if its one-all or something else entirely. I am going to start testing the actuators and or replacing, if I find the problem and cure or not, I will pass it on.
