Default Key fob and lock not working

I have a friend with a 2003 chevy tahoe LT and both key fobs stoped working and when you press the lock bottom on driver side on the door it does not lock the passenger side but locks other three doors. We have tried to reprogram the key fobs but nothing. So we dont have a clue what it could be. Thanks guys.

Many locksmith shops now, are able to fix that. They have a wide selection of factory remotes etc..... It'd be worth a shot.

A blown lighter fuse will stop the door locks from working with the switch...the fobs are probably another problem

Either fuse or maybe the actuator(?) to unlock that paticular door went bad.

Hunt - does the window work on the passenger side? If not, may be a bad connection. Maybe at the door switch itself.
