    Power Locks Help??

    05-23-2012 09:30 PM #1
    My locks have suddenly stopped working from both the inside buttons and my remote. So I can only lock my driver door with the key and have to push down and pull up the passenger door lock all the time. I am assuming that it is a fuse, relay or faulty connection of some sort.

    Any help is appreciated as I can not even find where the fuse for the power locks is as it is not labeled in the fuse box under the steering column.

    Thanks

    When you turn the key, do you hear the pump in the trunk run? If not, check the fuse and the connection at the pump. If you hear it, you have a broken vacuum line to track down. Usually the fitting at the door hinge is the culprit.

    Are you supposed to hear a relay clicking when you hit the lock/unlock switch in the car? I don't hear anything?

    How do you unhook the vacuum line tubing? Feels like I'm gonna break it.
