hi i have the 2000 toyota 4 runner with the door lock problem. it will unlock but will not lock either with the door switch or remote. i tried what you said to ground the test light to the white and brown wire to see if the door locks but nothing happened. i tried the ground to the white and brown wire like you said the last time i asked you i dont know if you remember and nothing happened. i also noticed that the passanger doors unlock and the rear driver side door unlocks but the drivers door will not unlock with either the switch or remote. should i try a very big heavy hammer and smack it really hard someone told me to change the entire fuse box but do you know what toyota wants for that $600.00. thank you for your time helmut

if the rest work but not the drivers door try some lube first, like lubing the linkage up and working the door lock if you can manually. it may be the door lock motor itself as that one gets used the most anyhow. make sure it is getting power to it as it may not be either.
