I have a 2000 ford ranger xlt supercab 4 door w/ a 4.0L. My power locks wont work. When you push unlock or lock it tries to lock or unlock but wont do either, same happens when you use the remote as well. Im thinking it the power lock actuators are bad but not sure. Could be a power issue but the power windows work fine so im not sure. Also how do you take the actuators out they dont seem too easy to take out. Any suggestions?

 

Sounds like actuator to me. Mine basically does same. Not sure how to take out though.

 

looking to figure out how to get them out now...

 

Have you checked the voltage going to the actuators?

 

how can I check the voltage I have a reader to do it but not sure which wires to connect it to

 

Your truck is junk!! lol jk pat, if you want i will be working on james truck on sat, i can take a look at them for you. not saying i will be able to fix them tho.
