lock actuator??

i thought there was a heat reistor in the actuator? i took mine apart and there is none, i ohm'ed from the plug on the outside to plug on the inside (where the motor is) an there is no reistence (0 ohms). checked power to the plug in the door and i have 12.5 v. when lock is activated?? so does this mean i have to buy new actuators?? or can u buy new little motors for in there??
any thoughts??

nevermind i done a search on that and found where the resistor is (in the motor who would have thought??) but by the way diesel went down to 3.89 here same as gas!!
don't matter to me though wvo and all, but thought i would get some use out of this thread though.

I just replaced mine tonight with a "piece of copper" in the rear doors. Worked out perfect!
