Window power and door locks..

I have a single cab truck (two doors). From the driver's side switch, the door lock button only works in the up position but only on the passenger door (hardly enough power to open the lock). The down position lock button from the drivers door doesn't send power to neither of the doors locks. On the passenger door switch, the window switch doesn't work. I have to roll the window up and down for my passengers. So I wanted to know, before I go and replace the door lock actuators, should I try replacing both door window switches first? Or if the door is getting some power, does that mean there toast?

I have had those type of issues before.

The switches are most likely bad. Just replace all of them. They are easy to replace.

You can get them at Orielly's and they don't cost much.

switches are bad. common problem, they get used quite a bit over the years, not to mention all the water from rain everytime you open the door
