Also check to see if maybe Fuse No. 3 down under the passenger side of the dashboard is loose or making bad contact.

I experienced a similar power door lock issue. It'* possible one of the contacts under the switch plates(driver or passenger) is making contact ALL the time.

Good advice! I bet if the switch is always on then the circuit breaker kicks in and shuts the locks off.

What do you mean, exactly? Does it lock with the power lock?

If three out of four power door locks work fine, I would suspect a problem within the passenger door... :(
