Power locks will not unlock
Hi Guys;
Need a little help, the stock power locks on my 82 will lock when I press the power lock button on either driver or passenger side, but will not unlock when I press the power lock buttons upwards to unlock on either side. Any idea as to how to fix this problem?
Thanks

Had a similar problem on my 78SA. I could try and jiggle the lock bezel and it would work for a time or two. Pulled the door panel to get to the lock switch and found this.....
Cleaned all the contacts with a razor knife and made sure the connectors were clean and tight. They've worked great since.
