Are these power locks that are non-functional? If so, suspect a fuse, or perhaps a lock actuator problem or other wiring issue. Is it all of the doors, or just one or two? Switches can also be an issue here. If it is not locking from the keyless remote, you may have a bad battery or broken wires in the keyless entry fob.
