Right power door lock not working

As i mentioned in the title, I have this issue with the right power door lock, it doesn' t work at all. If I press the switches nothing happens and if I lock or unlock the doors with the left switch, the right one doesn' t work. I can open and close it just manually.
Any suggestion to fix it?

Thanks!

Did you remove the door panel and check the solenoid/wiring/linkage? I would start there, try moving the solenoid/linkage to see if it moves freely, spraying lube on the solenoid if its sticking.Check for corrosion on the connector, check wiring for cuts.Probably more, but thats all i can think of right now.

I still didn’t, I’m going to get into it this week and check the things you suggested. This car was a Knight Rider replica, and I remember when I was pulling off some wires from the lock switch something sparked around it. Maybe the switch is gone?

Maybe checked for blown fuse/s if you caused a spark.
