Power locks failure

Hello, new to teh site.

have a 96 320S.

Power locks don't work, including gas cap.

Was told it may be the vacuum under the rear seat. Wondering
1.. Is that accurate
2. What is fair price for part
3. Can I install myself.

Thanks

There are two versions of the pump, the earlier had aq plenum that all the hoses attached to and was plugged on the pump. the later used some 2 and 6 port "ts" and fittings. The pump is in a foam enclosure under the rear passenger seat

If I took a photo and posted it, would you be able to help me idetify it. I pull up the seat and see where it is located. Also do I just glue the foam back on?
