Power Locks Please Help!!
I've search high and low for an answer and if anyone can give it to me its you guys. So here's the deal, my power locks have been messed up for a few months now. All will lock using the remote or the button on the driver's side and on the passenger's side, but only my driver's door will unlock with the remote or using the buttons.
The dealership ran it through diagnostic tests and also a local mechanic neither have found an answer. The only thing I hear is to leave it a day and let theme trace the wiring, but is there anyone on here that could tell me where to look and what to do and maybe save me a few beans for future mods. Anybody have a clue what this could be? 
BTW, the dealer said they would also go back and charge me for diagnostic test if I get them to fix it even though it did not help clear anything up.

You can give this a shot
One-touch unlock all the doors with keyfob
Press and hold the Lock button on the fob for at least 5 seconds but no more than 10. While still holding the Lock button press and hold the Unlock button. Release both and test.

Well I think I followed your directions but it didn't help. I had a feeling it would to cause they've messed with the fob and the interior switch and all, but haven't tried that yet. Anyways, thanks for atleast tryin to help a poor 22 year old fix his beloved jeep. I know I can do them manually like most people, but it sucks having that feature and not being able to use it.

Get the dealership to test the WCM module and it may have an internal Fault. This faulty WCM module was causing issues with my remote key fob distance to lock and unlock. This maybe a cause of your troubles....

I tried a few of these now, and it seems they would all work correctly if the unlock actually was working on all my other doors. (good info in thta thread tho) So at this point I guess it has to be either that module or a wiring problem what do you guys think?
