ok....my power door locks were weak...so i figured they were just old and going bad...today i changed the driver side and now it dont work...the passenger side works but slowly

the relay clicks!...i made sure but i am still gonna replace that also...wtf do i do?

 

Did you clean, lube, and put the rods back in correctly. Also make sure that you have a good charge on the battery. It may have gotten weak if you had the door open with the battery still connected while you worked.

 

new battery,i added the double clip for both rods, added lube

????????????????

 

How about the relay under the left kick panel. I don't what year yours is but some of them grounded the relay to the car frame.

 

my car is an 84...i checked the relay and i here clicking...could it be that the driverside part was on its way out?...

there is two connectors going into one relay

 

i have the same prolbem with my power locks. i changed the relay and i am getting power to the actuators but they dont work still, i am waiting to get a wiring diagram, my relay also clicks. drives me crazy. btw mine is an 86

 

Both of you check your e-mail, you have a christmas package there.:lala:

 

thanks alot brother. the prints sure are going to come in handy. cant wait until i get to the garage and to check it out...thanks again..

 

damn relay is $40

 

To Trickster:

Do you have a wiring diagram for a 1989 Camaro V6 car with power door locks. The people I got the car from said they unhooked them because they would lock and unlock by themselves with the ignition on and off and during the night it would drain the battery. I have no idea how they did it, but i would like for them to work again. Thanks

Hello Buck,

I have the schematic that you are asking about, unfortunately I am recovering from a harddrive crash and don't have it readily available at the moment. However it has been posted on the board and you will find it if you do a search for power locks.

 

i had the same prob with lock and unlock only when it rain and snow the way they prob disconected was at the relay wich is located at the driver kick panal under a black stickey pad, it is grounded to the car metal (if it is not grounded it will not work) they may have disconected it there or unpluged it there.
