Just thought about it…I would take a look at the wiring going from the door to the body. Bet you probably have a wire or two that’s broken over time..

The relay is what transforms the signal to unlock the doors into power for the actuators. If your FOB works but the door panel doesn’t, you probably have a different issue. However…these trucks are going on 20+ years old with thousands of cycles on the relays. Not a bad idea to replace them...

There’s 3 door lock relays, located inside behind the driver’s kick panel. Not a fun job to replace, but inexpensive if you want to try it. You’ll need 3 RY612 relays. I’ll agree with the majority of folks on here that say that the MAJORITY of the time, it’s the actual lock motor. Rock Auto has...

New door lock relays!

Thanks for the participants of this thread - you saved me $600 in door lock actuators. Replaced motors in all of the doors several years ago…fast forward to today, only the driver’s door worked. Turns out the 23 year old relays were toast. Worth the $15 and busted knuckles

They look good! Those wrinkles will fade with a little use and heat. Are you happy with them?

@BenCC's mount is excellent! That's what I've got in my 100 series.

Ben, I’m happy to report that call quality was EXCELLENT at highway speeds with the relocated mic. The only issue I noticed was that the passenger couldn’t be heard as well as the driver, which makes sense given mic placement. I wish there was a way to run dual mics like a lot of OE setups have now.

Banana holder clears the leg just fine, even with the bulky holster pictured.

Quality of the powder coat and metal work is good. I’m not a fan of the attachment method though - screws straight into the plastic. Will see if I need to reinforce in the future. Back to Ben stuff!

:hillbilly: can neither confirm or deny

Oh, and @BenCC the overhead mic sound quality seems to be very good. Will get more feedback at 70 mph soon.
