My 2015 Tahoe just had both front door power locks stopped working. Anyone had to replace their actuators yet? The rear doors both still work. No issues fuse wise, I saw it was an issue on older generations.

Thanks for the suggestion, do you happen to know which relay controls the front door door locks? I thought it was weird both stopped at the same time.

I don't for the 2015's but there either going to be in the main fuse box under the hood or inside the truck behind the panel on the left side of the dash presuming they still put some of them there. if you have a owners manual it should have a section denoting the fuses and relays if you do not have a manual you can get it free on the gm website, just google it and it will usually be the first hit. like (2015 Tahoe online owners manual)

and if I recall correctly there should be 2 relays, one for the front doors and one for the rear doors, so it would make sense if both the fronts stopped working if the relay took a dump

Went through the manual and it does not specify which fuse or relay controls the door locks. I pulled most of the fuses and all were fine. Sucks I cannot find out which one to check specifically. I did find www.gruvenparts.com sells the motors to rebuild the factory part with a better motor.

the owners manual says the drivers side dash fuse panel has "left door" #43, generally the relays around it are all the same model number, so you could try simply swapping say 43 & 44 and see if there is any change, as long as the relay has the same number printed on it you can swap them around.
