[QUOTE="ttocs, post: 1504700, member: 11896"] I am not aware of a fat door lock knob myself. The problem with the locking system is that ford used a system that was cheaper for them(less parts) but harder for us later(go figure right?). its called a 5-wire reversing polarity rest at ground system, or 5-wire for short. It is a master/slave switch system meaning if the pass side(Slave) quits working, so does the master(Drivers side). Now you might have a bad drivers side switch or a bad connection to the actuator in the door. The switch is easy to test/replace as that panel is the first to come off the door panel, the actuator is a bit of a PIA to get access to inside the door to replace. [/QUOTE]
