Question 1991: Auto door locks not working... (pics)

Hey guys ive done my searching and i havent come up with the answer i need....my auto door locks havent been working for a while so i thought id check the fuse box first to see if replacing the fuse will do the trick.

can anyone tell me from the pic below which is the fuse that controls the auto door locks? whats it labeled as?

sorry for the sideways pic.

no idea off hand. if you have the owners manual it may tell you specifically which one it is. also if you have a fuse tester or a test light, turn your key to the on position and test all of them, if you find one with power on one side of them and not on the other theres your bad fuse.

or heck, since theres not a ton of fuses you can just pull out each one and look at it to see if the metal is broken

True on the fuse for the red wire, and I notice that there isnt even a fuse in the ACC slot.
Check your manual for what size fuse you need, but listed in the manual for my 93, its a 30amp

regarding the PWR WDO and PWR ACC slots, aren't the fuses the silver boxes in the fuse slots already?

... and if the silver boxes are the correct fuses, i dont think the door locks run on the PWR WDO, because, and im assuming, that "PWR WDO" stands for Power Window, and if the power door locks run on the PWR WDO fuse, then my power windows wouldn't work either if the WDO fuse was dead - but the power windows are working....does my logic seem correct assuming my assumptions are correct?

I didnt see the fuse hiding there for the pwr acc. Have you tried a new fuse in the pwr acc slot? Also, have you tried the power locks from the passenger door to rule out a switch?
