We have a 2008 Escape XLT with key less entry. The drivers side front door will no longer lock or unlock with the key fob or with the power switch inside the door. You can manually push the lock down to lock it and pull the inside door handle to unlock it but anything involving the power lock will not work. The other 3 doors work fine and you can hear sounds within the drivers door like a mechanism is doing something, but the little lock knob just sits there. Well It may move just slightly but just slightly if anything at all. Is there anything else we can look at other than replacing the very expensive actuator? Like is there a linkage that can become disconnected or something.

Thanks for any help.
