'97 Explorer LTD Power Lock Issues

My '97 Explorer LTD is acting up. The drivers door power lock will not operate, key fob, door panel switch or keyless entry code. All other locks work fine. I tested the acuator & it tests fine. There dosn't seem to be any power going to the acuator though. Has anybody else experience this.

Sounds like a broken pink/black or pink/orange wire in the door jamb from opening & closing the door.

Not sure, but I think theres a way to open up the plastic cylinder in the door jamb that the wires run thru to get at the wires.
