Default Door Lock Problem

When I unlock my alarm the doors all unlock but the left rear door has problems unlocking, I have to press the unlock button several times to get the rear doors lock to go up. The rest of the doors are fine.

Any idea's why?

The solenoid is probably going bad. Did your car come with power door locks or was it an aftermarket install?

:werd: your actuator is probably going out. sometimes when they get older they don't pull as hard

when I remove the door panel, nothing's going to move out of place right?

I haven't done it before so it's worth a try to see if it's not connected well.. just want to make sure

The door panel will have a few snap in's around and then two screws: One for the handle, and one for the part where you hold to close the door. The door handle should have a metal bar that connects to the latch and should have the power window harness connected.
