Power door lock failure

Where are the power door lock relays located on a 1999 Ram 2500 4wd. I hear the unlock relay clicking, but no lock relay. I removed the panel below the steering wheel, just to find another panel which looks to be connected to several other panels. Before I figure out how to remove this panel, am I looking in the right place for the lock relay? Thanks.

More than likely the problem is in your door with lock linkage. Piviot points get corroded and stick.

The door will physically unlock with the power actuator, just will not lock. Should I still be looking at the linkage? Thanks.

it could just be the switch on the door

does the other door lock and unlock

seems like you have power to the door locking-unlocking system so i wouldnt mess with the fuses

This is probably obvious, but just incase, My doors will not lock if I have the keys in the ignition and I open the door and try to lock it. For a while I thought I had an intermittent problem with my door lock, until I figuered this out.
