Thanks for sharing. When I pull the doors open for mirrors & speakers, this is 'on the list'...

I did all of that and still my lock isn't operating properly on the driver's side.... So I went and ordered a new actuator which I installed today. Still not working right. I only have the actuator connected to the latch. Neither the inside or outside handle is attached and I'm not running the rod through the guide so as to eliminate any possible source of drag.
Thanks for sharing your information.
I did basicly what you did.
Since I got the truck,
(97 Seirra EC 3 door Z71)
My electric locks gave noise of working when the elec buttons were activated, and a ill 'huuuh' half hearted attempt at moving, but didn't throw locks. I opened door, wiped rods clean as I could, lubed them with silicone spray. I used a seal pick, punctured a small hole in boot and got the WD can tube in there for a few shots to loosen the old crud up.
Now, upon lock button activation, passenger side is like new, Impresses the guests now.
Drivers side, the lock rod to the interior knob, its moving just as good as psssenger side. However, now, linkage seems to over travel upon unlock, with interior the slide moving too far up, with the linkage mechanism now binding somewhere. I need to physically push interior lock down to engage the lock again. Might be a good 'don't lock yourself out, again' feature but not correct operation.
What malfunction did you experience?
Did you resolve it?
