Power locks trouble

[RobbAdams]

Power locks stopped working yesterday. after I popped the rear window on my 98 Jimmy (4dr 4x4). the actuators clicked a few times, and then they were dead?

I checked both of the fuses in the side of the dash, they are both fine. When I put each of the fuses back in, the doors would lock?

neither of the power lock swithches work, but I do hear a click from the drivers side of the dash, when the button is engaged?

Any suggestions? I am thinking perhaps a relay or some thing?

Sounds like the door lock relay isn't energizing properly.

Check for broken wires in the rubber boot between driver door and body.

turns out the spring in my rear hatch loch is broken, and was not returning the cylinder to a vertical position, so the "central locking" on the hatch was perpetually locked. tuned the unit back to the vertical position, and the locks etc work fine. Guess I am going to require a new rear button thingy?
