Default Power door locks

1999 Blazer, When you hit the power locks to lock the car all locks shut with the exception of the drivers door. The lock will try to close, but does not close completley. I took the door panel off, white lubed the 2 connecting arms. The lock moves freely manually. Any ideas here. I'm guessing a bad lock accuator. If so, is it a difficult repair, it apperas to mount inside the door down by the door latch.
Thanks, John

Could be a worn relay.

Relay's either work or they don't. It's got to be the power lock actuator either hanging up or just not working as it should. If you remove the actuator, check to see if you can disassemble it. If you can, try cleaning the actuator bore/plunger and put it back together. I don't know if it is possible, but hey, it'll only take up a bit of your time.
