The passengers side will not work when the drivers side is broken. Sounds like that is your case.

Either switch can cause either lock not to work. Also, a 1995 does not have a BCM.

In my 94Z, the ground wire for the lock switch (pass. side) broke at the connector causing both locks not to work. Check the wires at both connectors.

My locks do not work either. They have not worked since I have had the car (6 months). I have an aftermarket alarm on the car with keyless entry, remote start and car alarm. I just assumed the alarm was not hooked up correctly. I will check my passenger side lock wires today. It sucks having to manually unlock the passengers side. How stupid it would look if I used my remote start to start the car but had unlock my doors manually with the key.
