Unfortunately it is probably the lock actuators on all three, this is a known problem on those, I have worked at a chevy dealer for along time and have seen this many times usually due to water intrusion in the connector at the lock actuator, have been lucky a few times and been able to clean the connectors..

    Ok so I was thinking that for the rear doors...but where and how would I get to the actuator for the tail gate?

I have 2007 chevy avalanche,..all the doors including the tailgate lock when I press the power locking button but when I press the unlock button only the front doors unlock but both rear doors as well as...

Depending on what you have for diagnostic knowledge and tools. You may want to send it in for diagnostics and repair. I can tell you that your vehicle's BCM (Body Control Module) controls these circuits. If it was a t my shop. I would first look for any fault codes. Then through the scan tool, manually command the doors to lock and unlock. Depending on what I find, take a closer look at the master control switch. This is in the drivers door and opens/closes windows and locks/unlocks doors. I'm forwarding you a couple wiring schematics just in case. I don't want to slow you down. FYI under the hood, inside the power distribution box. There is a relay for the tailgate lock/unlock. Any questions please feel free to write back. Good Luck.

I have a 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche LTZ and my drivers side window doesn't want to go up or down. All of the other windows operate good. It's just the drivers side that doesn't want to funct

I have an 07 avalanche that did that to to the rear window. It was the switch. Take drivers side switch plate off and use one of the good switches on the drivers door. If it works roll it all the way to top and get urself a new switch. iIf it does not work then its the window motor. Good luck.............

Heated seats

Probably a loose connection or fuse (start with the fuse and then look for a loose connection in the door)

Remote lock for back doors and rear tail gate door

Actually I found a solution. I remove the lock relay form the fuse panel and placed it back in place. I did not replace it. After doing this they worked. I probably need to replace the relay at some point, but for now that solved the problem. It was hard for me to believe that there is a separate relay for the lock and unlock circuit.
