Hey folks. 2004 Tahoe Z71 with 320K on the clock.

THE FOB IS NOT THE PROBLEM... I've tried multiple new OEM fobs..

on the driver door, the lock button does not work. the unlock button does.
on the passenger door, the lock button does work. the unlock button does not.

on the fob, the lock button works, but the unlock button does.

any ideas on the issue? I've looked into a VIPER alarm system but a technician recommended not doing it unless i solve the core issue first. Do you think if i do a ECU/PCM swap that would fix it?

Thanks in advance.

sounds like time to try some door switches, the junkyard is your friend.
I would try the master switch first and see if that allows the passenger side to work properly
the switches are tied into the master, so if the master is bad the others "may" not work correctly.
pretty unlikely to be anything else unless of course the actuator is bad, "maybe" a relay. but less likely.
