Door locks

I bought a 1996 F350 v8 7.5liter truck. One of my latest project was replacing the doors with another F350 that I have. Things went on nicely until today the auto locks will only lock they won't unlock, the lights on the dash are flickering, and there is a new noise coming from under the dash. All my fuses are fine, so I just don't know if anyone has had this problem when they changed the doors, should I look into a new door actuator?

Well if there is a short I would think the problem would have shown up before now? I thinking its more along the lines of my relays now, just because too much electrical stuff isn't working and if all my fuses are good, Im wondering if a relay is bad.
