Actuator

I have an issue with my door locks on all 4 doors. The lock often only comes part way up. If I push lock and unlock a couple of times, it usually unlocks the problematic door. When I use the key (rather than remote), it always unlocks the driver's door but doesn't always unlock the other doors. Is it the actuator? Do I need to fix this in all of the doors?
As always, thanks for the help.

Chris

Is the actuator in the drivers door only or is this an issue in each of the doors?

Is it reasonable that this is an independent issue with each of them occuring at the same time (this is a relatively new thing) rather than there be a single issue causing the problem with all 4 doors?

When my driver side acctuator went bad it went from working to not working. It never worked after i first had a problem with it. From my experience, it leads me to believe that you have another issue.
