Default Automatic door locks???

I have an 82, and in the process of removing the door panels and checking the locks I must have accidently blown a fuse. Not a big deal, right?? However, I can't find the correct fuse!! I have checked them all, and they seem intact. Although, Door locks still won't work. Any ideas???

Take a test light and test the fuses in the fuse box. Check both sides of the fuse with the ignition on, so they all have power.

Is your clock in the dash working? If yes your fuse is okay. If not replace the courtesy fuse. Just a good place to start. BDCMPNY
