Default Door lock actuator question

In my 2001 Z06 the passenger side door lock actuator locks with the remote and the button on the door but does not unlock with either.

Any idea if it is a bad actuator or wireing?

Thanks

The lock and unlock functions are controlled by separate relays on the PC board inside the door. The relays are surface mounted to board and can be de-soldered with enough wattage. I bought new relays from either Allied Electronics or Newark. Shipping was more than the relays ($1.68 each)

Do a search. You will find a DIY. Or pay the dealer $$$$ to replace it.
