sudoers is the only file to edit for sudo. You are doing it correctly by using visudo.

If you could post your sudoers file it would be easier to pinpoint the problem.

there is a entry in sudoers file for no passwd u have to add the username in that section also so that the user is not prompted for password

for access also u have to give all=all there is a sample for root you cal copy the same and replace the username

it will help if u post the contents of the sudoers file
