One actuator per door. Since you mentioned passenger front door, is there a key on that side? (sorry, I have an 01 3.0). I just replaced mine this weekend. It's the same issue as yours . . . key fob and internal button won't open the passenger door. Only the inside door lever works.

Change it actuator asap before that internal lever stops working too. It would be difficult to remove the inside panel if door is closed.

You will find how-to videos on how to remove the panel and to remove the actuator itself. I got the replacement one from Amazon for $135 (Dorman) and hopefully it lasts. It took me 2.5hrs to replace the first time. Buy few door push clips while you are it since guaranteed you are going to break a few.
