just nought a 99 lightning and non of the power locks work. when i press the button all i hear is the relay clicking and nothing happens. where is the power window relay on this truck? i also read something about the acuators resistors going bad and there being a way to fix them. but first i will see if the relay is bad, really wish this truck would of still had the owners manual.

You need to replace the actuators. This is a common problem in 2000 and older Fords. There was a re-design done in '01 or so to correct the problem. The new ones won't look the same as the old ones and they are not cheap, in the range of $60 each. I cannot remember where I saw it but there was a how to. I did both on my buddie's 99 L, first one took about 45 minutes, second one less than 20.
