Default Rear door lock question

ok I have a problem with my durango locking. The doors lock and unlock fine but when I lock the doors it makes a wired noise. It's coming from the rear driver door because the door vibrates when the noise occurs. I took apart the door and everything seemed ok, but I really don't know what to look for. Thanks in advance

When you have the door panel off try it to see if anything is loose or if the motor might be loosing a bearing so it might be on the way out.

Its the door latch, makes a buzzing sound. Replace the latch and the noise will be gone.

Here is a how-to I put together on swapping out the rear door lock.
