Air powered actuation for the door locks...but you'd need a control module to make them keyless.

Follow the hissing sound. It's probably a leak at a connection somewhere.

Good Luck!

Ok I check the noise in the back and yes my car have the power door lock pumps and the noise is the pump, I test and blow air when you open the door locks and vacuum air when you lock. I follow the line and have a two route, one in the driver side and another in the passenger side but in the passenger side in the trunk just behind the tail light have a plug with black line and this one goes to the trunk and in the same plug have double line one two VDO piece hold in the passenger panel on the trunk. And the other line goes to the passenger side front and rear door.

The problem is the door locks don’t run (open or close) and I unplug the plug in the passenger side and when I activate the pump you don’t feel any air or vacuum.

Please tell me what the possible problem here is

If the pump is running in both directions ( lock/unlock ) And there are no leaks at the pump or anywhere else within the car, then your pump is probably bad.

Are you certain that there isn't a leak anywhere? The pump will usually continue to run for awhile trying to create a vacuum when the doors are locked.
