Right side power door lock not working

I have a 1997 Acura 2.2CL with a little over 100,000 miles on it. I just replaced the left side door regulator and it works good. Now my next project is fixing the right side door. When I hit the remote or lock button, the right door doesn't lock or unlock. I have to door pannel off and the rod doesnt move either. Any ideas??

Okay I will check into that. Any ideas if that could cause the alarm to randomly go off? It used to do it periodically then quit. Now that I took the right side door panel off, it is doing it again.

^so your left door wasnt working, and you replaced that. Now your right door isnt working....and the alarm is going off?

sounds like an electrical problem.

No I replaced the window regulator and motor on the left (drivers) side. Put that all back together and took the right (passenger) side apart because for a few years now the power lock has not worked on that side. Right around when it quit working the alarm would randomly go off and then quit. Now that I took the door panel off it's doing it again. Would this have a relation with the door actuator that is bad?

Dont have a CL, but just going off of logic here.

if the door doesnt lock/unlock its the door lock actuator.
Dont know if this has anything to do with the alarm going off.
