Question Sliding door lock actuator (motor/solenoid)? What is the correct part# or picture?

Hello, my 2008 DGC rear left sliding door lock stopped working (don't click open/close when I press button on keyfob or driver door panel buttons), so I have to always open driver front door and reach from there to sliding door lock to open it. I'm talking about lock actuator only (I don't have power sliding doors).
Can someone post a picture of correct door lock actuator or part#? The thing is I Goggled but every-time only part for 01-07 Caravans comes out. I ordered part from Mopar seller (gave him my VIN and he confirmed that it will fit) but I have doubts that it is also for 01-07 model years - because it looks suspiciously similar to what comes for 01-07 in Google.
Thanks.

Question

Was it the correct part? Had mine go out on a 2010 today. Actually found that passenger side is stuck unlocked and cannot be operated manually. Drivers side can be operated manually but not electrically.

I ended up fixing it myself and I found out it was a broken wiring. If you open the sliding door and check the plastic cord that rolls as door opens/closes - it contains wiring inside. They are prone to damage. Check that first - move it around and see if it suddenly will restore power. But if you are saying door is stuck open - that means some issues with door motor mechanism, not lock actuators. IMHO.

Mine doesn't have power doors just locks n windows. Power lock is stuck unlocked on passenger side. Can't move it manually.
