89 Bronco II PWR Door locks don't work.

[robert4fun0058]

I HAVE JUST BOUGHT AN 89 BRONCO II, WANTED ONE FOR THE LONGEST TIME. DOOR LOCKS DON'T WORK, BOUGHT IT USED THAT WAY. MY PLAN IS TO CHECK THE FUSE, THEN FOLLOW THE MANUAL TO REPLACE THE LOCK ACTUATORS. I AM NOT A MECHANIC. AM I GOING OVER MY HEAD. IS THIS THE RIGHT APPROACH? SHOULD I CHECK THE FUSE, ORDER INEXPENSIVE ACTUATORS AND LET A PRO PUT THEM IN? AM I WAY OFF?

THANKS TO ALL OF YOU, WHO ARE MUCH MORE MECHANICALLY INCLINED THAN I WILL EVER BE. I APPRECIATE IT. CHEERS! SO HAPPY I BOUGHT IT, I JUST GOT IT JULY 9/2010, YESTERDAY BUT I AM EXCITED.

Here is how I did mine.

I used a camera to take a closer look at the locking mechanism, and found that to be helpful
