Nothing to do with the red/black wire if the doors all lock OK, although this mod. should be made as a matter of course.
Take off the door card, loosen the two small screws that hold the lock motor in place, and see if the system locks and unlocks as you move the lock motor up and down.

Please try to post tech. help questions in the appropriate section. There's a big clue in the title that you gave this thread as to which section it should be in!
