Door Lock actuator

My truck has a door lock problem. When you push the unlock button the lock doesn't move. I believe this problem is due to weak actuators. It does it on both sides, and it does the same thing with the keyless entry. Has anybody else had this problem? If it is the actuators, does anybody know where to get them?

Common problem. Do a search and you will find hours of reading. Here's something to get you started though.

Thanks for the help. About how much do the actuators cost?

I think it was about $60 at the dealer.

Try this website for a better price. Just type the Ford part numbers from the link that's in post #2 in the section "Search by factory Part Number". The new part numbers have a 6 at the front of the p/n instead of a 3. If you enter a 3 you'll get the right part and it will tell you the number has been superceded with the 6.
