Re: [DML] door problem



Hi Marvin

The way the door module works is through switched-earth. If you look inside the door, find the sliding contact which operates with the door locks. There are two wires coming from it. One is Brown/Slate, the other is Brown/Pink. The Brown/Slate one is the Lock signal. Earth this wire and the doors will lock (assuming your lock module is working okay). Earth the Brown/Pink wire and the doors will unlock. NB earthing te unlock wire when the locks are unlocked (and vice-versa) will do no harm.

Why am I telling you this? Well, apparently lifting your door handle is having the effect of earthing the Brown/Slate wire. Check for any places on this wire where the insulation has worn through, perhaps against the door handle mechanism.

More likely though is that the lock linkages need to be loosened up slightly. If this is the case, you are in serious door-jam territory! :-)

No the Lockzilla will not correct this problem.

HOWEVER, now when I attempt to enter the car and open the passenger door, when the handle is lifted I can hear the doors lock. The key unlocks the doors. This does not happen from the drivers side.

Will the installation of Lockzilla correct this?
