So I lubed up the passenger electric door locks linkages hopeing it would get it working again now the drivers side does not want to work and it was working just fine for me whats going on is their another solenoid between the electric door locks I am not aware of ? and if so were is it on a 99 its the only thing I can think of as wd40 would/should not short anything out right? :confused:

I can't imagine it's related, unless you simply pulled some connection free. And I imagine you're careful with/thought of that. WD40 won't short electrical.

There's a door lock relay under the passenger right kick panel, up high under the dash.

Thanks for that I would say its that door lock delay relay too as it says its a delayed relay I am sure thats the one stuffed behind the radio I am assuming if I can remove the radio and hold onto things back their like the relay I will be able to feel it working then its just a matter of getting it out and testing or replacing it..

can I replace it with an 80 amp solonoid :nono: :shrug:
