Power doorlock not working

On my driver side my doorlock will push out to unlock it and seems to be fine but it does not pull it in all the way to actualy lock the door. Any ideas why?

Maybe a weak actuator or connection? My passengers side is like that too.Its kinda annoying.

No problem.. Good Luck!

On the to do list - connect my alarm to the locks, since they actually work now!

My passenger door used to do the same thing, I think it was a loose rod causing it. Just take off the door panel and check all the rods and stuff. Hope that works.
