Power locks won't work

I just rewired the interior of my car, mainly my alarm and stereo. Now, when I go to use my power locks, they move a bit, but don't lock. I have a feeling it's something simple...any ideas?

If it's just your one door, check that you haven't pinched the rod in the door. I had that problem before-I tried to soundproof and the material was too tight against the lock rod.

Problem solved-low battery. They work fine when I'm driving, it's just when I'm stopped that I have trouble. Easily fixed.
