Some have had wires between the door and kick panel corrode away.

Use a volt meter, start at the switches and work you way towards the actuators until you find the problem. Also check the connections for corrosion & loose connections.

could it be something as silly as bad wires in the kick panel? that's where I had to wired in my remote starter/keyless entry on my 94 (but on the pass side). do you hear any clicking in that kick panel when you hit any of the lock buttons? sounds like maybe a bad relay or something .. if none are working...?
