pulling up on the front driver's side door usually open up all the door locks. pushing it past locking would close them all. i don't recall trying the locking function, but the unlock feature doesn't engage. With the center dash apart, and while "testing" that unlock feature, i could hear a faint clicking. In feeling around for that noise, i concluded it was coming from a relay right under the center air vent. like it wanted to engage, but just couldn't trigger something more.
i'm not sure how to explain it anymore than that. i don't know where any other parts of the central locking system would be, just really wondering if it could be a relay or something. but then again, every time i think something is broken... A little "spring cleaning" inside the mess-o-dash wires, and i seem to get a few things back.
two projects forward.. one project back.
