How to remove inside door panel?
How do I remove the door panel on my 99.5 F250 SD PSD?
My power door locks will lock, but not unlock...The remote and the buttons on the doors won't unlock the doors (both doors) I think I may need to replace the lock actuator(s). I've never done this before.. Anyone know how to do this??

Pop off the light/reflector lens and the lock/window switch panel. There are 2 screws behind them. Also, pop off the black trim piece behind the mirror mount. After removing everything, pull the bottom out (bottom only), and just lift the panel UP. Don't pull out too hard, there are plastic "fingers" that will break easy.

the lock actuators are terrible in Ford vehicles....they go out frequently. evidentally the new ones are better quality and are easy to install. I have heard that the dealerships sell them anywhere from $30- $50 each. easy to change out and takes care of the problems.

Is there someplace on the web to get the actuators at a reasonable price??
Have they been improved since 1999??

check around the web for cheaper parts too! https://fordparts.com/acc/oe_parts_catalog.html also lists it at $71....I'm sure I have seen them cheaper though.

Thanks Fisher... I have found out that the door lock actuators are sticking.. What puzzles me is.. Why both at the same time?? What would make them stick?? Dirt??
It seems to me that the drivers side door gets used way more than the passenger side.. Why would both door lock actuators behave the same way?
I'm wondering if they have been improved since 1999 the year of my truck.. Would anyone have any insight on this?
