Power lock problems

Over the weekend my power lock just went dead. I can't lock/unlock my car via remote, key, or even manually from inside my car. There is resistance with the lock tab from inside and it refuse to budge. This is happening on BOTH my driver side and passenger side door. Luckily my hatch locks still works, so that's how I've been getting in and out of my car...haha.

Anyone know what is causing the problem, how it can be fixed? Or should I just bring it in to Acura to fix? Thanks.

I had the same problem, last winter the lock mechanism are rusting up... my driver side did that until I took it apart and used some WD40 and rustcheck. If the actual p/l actuator are dead then you would still be able to open the door with the key.
