Default Lock cylinoid?

My passenger side door will not unlock with my keyless entry or with my power lock inside the car on either door. It just makes a clicking noise by the speaker. Im guessing i need to replace the lock cylinoid. Anyone want to chime in with any thoughts or info? Is this my issue? Where to get one. Any tips on the project?

Thanks
Jeff

I think you mean Solenoid or Lock Cylinder?

My 2002 was just doing the exact same thing. The relays in the door control module are bad. There are two of them inside the door control module. My dad and I just replaced mine and it works great now. Parts for the repair were less than $20.00 and the dealer wanted close to $400 to replace the DCM. There is a nice write up on how to do the repair by another forum member. Search "power door lock" that is how I found it. It worked like a charm but you need some soldering skills.
