Possibly a fuse or relay problem. Since no locks work, it'* not just the lock itself. Since you hear something else where, it'* not the button. If I recall, there is a relay on the passenger side of the maxifuse relay center under the hood.
Hope this helps.

Had the same problem with my 91.
You press the automatic locks and you get a little click from what sounds like the glove compartment.
For me it wasn't a fuse issue, and I don't believe it'* yours either.
It'* possible it'* a relay issue.... I find that with my 91 it'* worse in cold weather. But if you wait a minute or two then they will work. Odd I know.
Someone mentioned taking all the doors apart and greasing down the locks (and window motors while your at it) with white grease. I know it works great for the windows, and I heard that it'* solved some lock issues too.
Hope that info helps.

As it turned out. The Driver side contact was stuck underneath the switch plate. Once I freed it, all the power door locks worked.
