Glad people are still finding this post useful after all these years.

My locks stopped working a year ago, and I didn't know about this... But I had alarm system installed, and my new FOB locks and unlocks the doors now! The power lock switch still doesn't work.
I assume this fix won't work...?
Where should I start to look? I've tried another switch, and it performs the same.
Windows are intermittent and locks don't work. Troubleshooting both right now.

Dug up this old post just to say, THANKS! This worked for me... sort of... Before I reset the CB, the door lock switch didn't appear to be doing anything. After resetting the breaker, the two front door locks work with the switch. The rear door locks don't work. But, I can hear them clicking. So, they probably need a good cleaning (they're kind of stiff and hard to lock/unlock manually).

So... THANKS again!

Mine doesn't click. Does that mean the circuit breaker is shot?

Take it out & Use a multimeter to check continuity

Do your door locks not work on your FJ62?

Try resetting the circuit breaker. Use a paperclip and insert into the hole on the silver top of the breaker. It will "Click", then it is reset.

It's located right around the other relays and electrical stuff behind your fuse box and the hood release.

Awesome, thanks. I was wondering what this was, and I didn't know they needed reseting. Double awesome. Still gotta fix the switch. It doesn't return to centre and I think that's What tripped it.

This was a great fix, resetting the breaker. My locks have never worked and now they do. Thanks for the help.

Amazing find in 2024. I'm in the same boat have just found this thread and can't wait to try the fix. Fingers crossed

Any obvious reason why they'll unlock but not lock?

Any obvious reason why they'll unlock but not lock?

the copper tab inside the switch, is coated in carbon, and preventing power to flow
