Issue w/ Power Locks - No CA

This weekend, after getting a Starbucks my key fob was unable to unlock the doors. The auxiliary lights still blinked indicating that the car thought it was unlocking/locking the doors, however it was not. Manual key was able to open driver-side door. Dash door lock button was also unable to unlock/lock doors. All doors except driver-side door were able to manually unlock from the inside when pulling the door handle. Driver-side did not respond to manually pulling the handle. Only responded to manually using key from exterior.

I searched the forum and found two likely causes, a blown fuse and the main actuator. I started by looking at the power locking fuses. Two of the fuses were blown, 56 (a 15) and 57 (a 20). Luckily I had a spare for each. After replacing the issue persists.

Any ideas, or am I going to be seeing my SA soon...

Review of Symptoms:
  • Remote key fob unable to unlock/lock doors
  • Dash button unable to unlock/lock doors
  • Auxiliary lights flash indicating lock/unlock
  • Manually unlocking doors from interior by pulling handle works for all doors
    but driver-side
  • Driver-side only responds to manually using key from exterior
  • Found/replaced two blown fuses - 56 & 57, but issue remains

Any further assistance with this issue would be greatly appreciated.
