Door locks

I just replaced the VSM and now my power door locks are very slugish and sometimes dont work. Almost seems like there is not enough power to them. Im thinking there is a relay for the actuators that may cause this?? Anyone else come across this problem and what was your fix.

Thanks Mike

Good Morning Mike. There are no relays involved withthe door locks, it is all 12 volt straight to the switch.. The first switch the voltage goes to is the drivers door, per the print.

Now, it is all doors, or just some of the doors.. there is a fix for this..Welcome to FTE by the way..

Hee is a link to the repair, as I did it and others as well https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/9...-actuator.html
