Q: Inside driver side and passenger side door locks do not work and that is the only way that I can lock my car.

asked by on July 14, 2016

How can I fix my door locks? The inside driver side and passenger side door locks do not work when I push the button and they make no sound. I do not have a lock on my key fob so the only way to lock my car is on my door. I checked my fuses but none of them are burned out. What else should I check?
My car has an automatic transmission.
