yea, i am having a similar problem with my 99 accord. for the last few months the passenger side door locks work sporadically. sometimes they both lock/unlock, then sometimes only the front will work, then sometimes only the back, and then the other times both dont work. it also does not matter whether i use either door lock buttons or the key fob. anyone have any suggestions on where i should start with this thing?

87_gt, what year/model of accord are you dealing with?

NJ, you can download a 94 shop manual from the links in the Online Manuals thread in the DIY forum. The 94 is almost identical to your accord. There are 2 fuse boxes in your car. One is under the driver's side dash near the hood release. The other one is in the engine bay near the passenger windshield. The fuse to check is #38 (20 amp) that is in the engine bay fuse box.

page 23-32

click electrical. The link is under fusees. Just remove the fuse and see if the wire is still intact. You can simply replace the fuse.
