power door locks not working

all of a sudden my power door lock in my driver side is not functioning..sometimes it does and sometimes it does not, and you can always see its trying to work but just cant seem to get the juice to actually pop the lock open or closed..the only thing i can think of is that its somehow related to when i got the interior drivers side kick panel area partially submerged that something down there got wet related to the door lock, but the actuator itself should be high enough in the door where it wouldnt get wet from that right...had about four to six inches of water in the interior on the drivers side from a wheeling incident..

On that I find it simple enough to popped the panel off and look in see maybe if there is something binding it up or add some grease even take out the actuator and test it straight from a 12 volt source.

Maybe some corrosion on a ground. I had some trouble with my rear window not going down. Discovered some of the weatherstrip was loose and letting some water get in. I also sprayed the switch mechanism with some electrical contact cleaner from Radio Shack. I'm not sure which did the trick, but it's still working 9 months later.
