Passenger door won't lock/unlock electonically
A few weeks ago my door lock fuse blew. I couldn't unlock the car with the key fob, the door handles, nor the interior lock/unlock button. I replaced the blown 15amp fuse with a 20amp fuse (as I read to do here on the forums).
Today I noticed when I went back to my car that my passenger door wasn't locked. I closed my car back up and pressed the lock button on the key fob. The passenger door lock won't do anything. I can't still unlock it with the door interior door handle (which I couldn't do before when the fuse was blown) but nothing else will move it. Any ideas? Thanks. |

You should never replace a fuse with a HIGHER rating fuse. That is a No, NO.
My guess is your passenger door lock servo is bad and drawing too much juice/amps.

That was not any more fun that it was the first time. Changed out the 20amp fuse back to a new 15amp fuse.
Still nothing. Ideas? |

Or the wires inside the door(or A pillar) are broken or shorting out to the body of the car.
