Default 99 LX door lock problem

I'm having a problem with the passenger-side door lock on my 1999 Honda Accord LX. Sometimes, the passenger side from lock will not lock and unlock with the switch or the key fob on my aftermarket keyless entry remote.

Quite often the passenger lock will work fine for a few cycles, then it will stop. When it stops working, it can still be moved up and down by hand, but not with the switch or key fob. Often, it will work for 3 or 4 "lock-unlock" cycles, and then stop. Other times, it won't work at all, and other times, it might work for 8 cycles before stopping.

The driver side and the rear lock work fine.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for the replies. I've got a new actuator on its way to me.
