Unhappy 1997 Door lock weird issue

Hello I just purchased a 1997 5.2 1500. The Driver side lock was not working so I replaced the Actuator which I thought fixed the problem. I then noticed that when locking driver side the passenger side unlocks. Tried passenger side and when locing passenger side driver side unlocks. Never have run into a stupid issue like this before dont even understand how it could happen. Im hoping someone has run into this before and can help. Thanks in advance10.1.1

Some wires are backward somewhere. Most connectors are keyed though.......

If the only thing you touched was the drivers side actuator, I would look there first.
