1980 Power Door Lock Question
Morning,
The power lock on the driver's side does not actuate with the key from the outside, but works when the switch is used from the inside.
Any thoughts/suggestions before I tear it apart?

I'm missing something. Power locks only work from the inside, locking and unlocking with the switches.
Are you saying the key does not unlock the driver's door from the outside? If so, sounds like the lock rod may have come loose.

You're right, I'm sorry. Now that I re-read my OP, I see your point.
Correct, the key does not unlock the door from the outside.
I figured it was something mechanical, but I figured that I would ask the experienced experts in the event that this was one of those "Corvette only" weird things.
You know how it is.
Thanks very much!
