Door lock relay

Whe i try to lock the doors with the power lock. The metal box under the dash towards the floor makes clicking sounds. I think its the relay and i think its bad. The power locks won't work. What is it?

Re: Door lock relay

Sounds like the relay is bad. Try replacing the relay and see if that helps.

Re: Door lock relay

Did you check your PWR ACC 30A circuit breaker? It powers the door locks. So if the relay clicks but doesn't lock/unlock, it might be the breaker. (the relay itself is powered from the Courtesy fuse).
