crew cab rear door locks

just wondering if anybody had any help or sugestions here. my truck is a 97 f250 crewcab with electric locks within the last year the right rear door no longer locks electricly and the left rear door usually does not always fully unlock when you push the unlock button. I was just wondering how hard electric locks are to change and if anybody has done them. Also anybody got a ball park figure of what new ones would cost? Thanks a bunch.

Same problem. When I hit the unlock button the back door lock dose not come all the way up seems to be just hanging up.

Do a search on this site for locks or door locks as there have been several fixes for just that problem
I'll have to do some research as well to see if I saved them.

Here's one that I saved from this site. It's for the newer trucks but the theory is the same, cost $0 to fix.

Mine did the exact same thing last year right after I bought it.

It was the rear driver side door lock hanging up. I removed the door panel for a better look, found out that was not necessary.

Spray WD-40 or a good silicone lubricant in there where the locking mech. is and it should be fixed.

I sprayed mine with WD-40 a year ago and they have worked well ever since, prior the door would not unlock with the electric lock button

good luck
