Default Power locks not working.

Does anyone knows wich fuse is for the powerlocks on a 1982?
Both of them don't work in my car.
Anything else that can be the reason for it besides the fuse?
Any common problems with them? :confused:

Pete, they're under the acc fuse, the power windows and such are also on that fuse!

If the locks don't work, check if the motors are plugged in (remove doorboard) Also check if the grounds are still on the doors, without them it won't work either. I repaired my locks, some doofus put the stuff for the left side right and for the right side left so I had to rewire the whole thing.

Twinnie,

I've got the same problem. My power windows, power side mirrors, etc. are fine. The door locks and 6-way power driver's seat crapped-out about 3 or 4 years ago. Bad ground(s)?

BTW, is your cross-fire site back up or am I thinking of someone elses site?

My crossfire site hasn't been down!

The url is http://www.crossfire.webhop.net or https://www.crossfire.homeip.net for those who cant use port 81 for http transfer.

The driversseat only has one little harnass going to it, maybe it's disconnected? The tab on my conenctor was broken off and it had a tendency to seperate. I "fixed" it w/ a tie wrap. Pretty bubba but it did the trick :D

The door locks can be a major PITA, check the grounds, the conenctors and the harness begind the kickpanels. Maybe some wires were cut by the opening/closing of the door.
