I've been trying to work around them while trying to fix my locks, is there any way to disconnect them from the panel?

 

What exactly are you trying to fix and why? Also, what metal arms are you referring to? I've had the doors apart in both my jeeps so many times I can do it in my sleep, maybe I can help if you can give me some more detailed info on what the problem you're trying to fix is. I also have pics of the components inside the door.

 

The rear locks do not work with the others when I use the switch. They lock manually. I'm referring to the metal arms that connect to the door handle and the lock.

 

All of the control wires for the locks run through the rubber tube that runs from the drivers door to the frame. Peel the tube out of the frame and check for broken wires, you may have to peel the tube out of the door too. If you find broken or frayed wires you should solder them together and shrink tube them as opening and closing the door can loosen the connections again. Opening and closing the door over the years is what breaks the wires in the first place.
If the wires are good inside the tube you may have a problem with the wire harness that runs under the carpet right where you rest your feet. For some reason Chrysler engineers thought it would be a good idea to run a wire harness right where you rest your feet. You might have to peel the carpet back so you can inspect those wires.

 

I've ruled out electric problems because I can hear the actuators working but nothing happens. I just need to know how to get the panel off the door to get the actuators out to clean them

 

If you're talking about what I think you're talking about... Where the "arms" meet on the panel, you should be able to spin that plastic 90* elbow thing. The arms are locked onto the plastic elbow, so turn just the plastic off of the arm. Spinning this, in a sense, "unlocks" the arms and allows you to pull them upward to disconnect them.

 

There is a write up on this in the tech write up section. Should give you all the help you need
