Thanks for the tip, I really appreciate it.  Could you explain what you mean by the pins in the door lock switch, such as where it is and everything?  I don't know much of anything about this stuff :(  Thanks again.

To be honest, I don't remember which fuse it was.  I believe (don't hold me to this) but I believe that it was a yellow 20 amp fuse, in the glovebox that is located to the left of the steering wheel.

Well, all the fuses seem to be intact.  I'll try making sure the door lock switches are properly plugged in later today.  THanks again for all the help guys.

After the shop installed my 791xv in a 98 trans am with power locks, they could not get the locks to lock.  They unlock, but will not lock using the remote or the push button inside the car.  A signal goes to the BCM, it clicks, but nothing happens to the locks.  There has to be a way to wire up some relays to bypass the BCM and send the signal directly to the door locks.  Anyone know how exactly to wire this up????

Yes.  The remote does not lock them, and neither do the switches in the doors.  However, the remote and both switches are able to unlock the doors.

Check all fuses, connections, ets. If you are saying that your doorlock worked prior to taking it to a shop, they installed a system for you and the lock no longer works at all, I would have them look at the car. Check to make sure that the RED / black (- trigger for lock) at the BCM in the passenger kick is still connected. I am not saying this is your problem, I am just trying to offer something to try.
As far as hooking directly to the motors, yes you can do that, trusting everything else is fine. You would have to 5 wire the lock side of the circuit, just as the unlock should be connected currently.

Unfortunately the shop gave up on it after 7 days and gave me a discounted install rate, and I can't find anyone else to work on it.  Everything seems to be connected properly according to the schematics.

How exactly do I wire up the 5 wire lock side of the circuit?

I'm willing to try just about anything at this point.
