Default Power door locks not working.

I used the search bar but could not find anything specific. Ever since i bought the truck a month ago, the power door locks don't work. you can hear it when you hit the button but it wont lock or unlock the doors. What do you think it is? Thanks

Door lock actuators are as little as 25$ each at RockAuto. I've changed both in my 99. They are a challenge to change not real hard,but you have to do it entirely by feel as you cant see what your doing and you have to do two things at once ,one handed, hanging from the rafter...
On the other hand, there is a couple of YouTube vids showing the job.

I'm having the same problem. Could you point me to the YouTube videos you found? Also the part number or product page at rock auto?
