Hi Kathy,
Welcome to the forum. I moved your post into a new thread.
When you move the switch in the cab, do you hear any noise from the door locks? Maybe a grinding noise? Anything? How about with the fob?
There is no relay for the door locks - factory anyways. If someone has put in an aftermarket alarm or something at one point there could be. The CTM, the central timer, connects directly to the door locks. The door switches and RKE (keyless entry) both go through the CTM.
It is possible the actuators for the locks have failed.
