Anybody's driver's side front door locks crapped out?

Mine simply will not work with either the keyless entry FOB or the switch. All the other locks are working. What can be done? Is it time to visit the junkyard or can I just pop something back into place?

Bummer dude. Yeah I realized last night that I've probably been leaving my freakin door unlocked for like the last week! I would have been really ticked if anybody had gotten in and screwed something up or stolen something.

kinda happened to me when i first bought my max ... the driver side door never locked!.. even if you used the key or watnot... it would never lock... i ended up swaping out the entire locking mechanism... the actuator still worked (check urs)... just changed the actual lock itself... after that... no problems
actuator = receives the electronic signal to lock/unlock doors. located lower left hand corner of driver side door. (each door has one)

Cool. I guess to the junkyard I go. Or I suppose I should check eBay too.
