How do the lock rods work on a 1998 Buick park ave?

On a 1998 Buick Park Avenue, the lock rods are part of the door locking mechanism, connecting the door locks to the door handles. When you pull the door handle or use the key fob, the lock rod moves up or down to engage or disengage the locking mechanism. This action either locks or unlocks the door by securing or releasing the latch. Proper alignment and functioning of the lock rods are essential for the doors to operate smoothly.
