RE: The Resurrection of Vixen Continues...



Hi Again,

Thanks to Bob Zilla (who identified the cause), Martin Gutkowski (who actually made me understand how the locks work), and Darryl Tinnerstet, I have isolated the weird issue with my doors not unlocking with the key off. It seems there is a little diode in-line with (and right next to) the "lock doors" light that has gone bad. As much as I stared at the wiring diagram, I didn't notice the diode as it's not shown as a "component" per se, but instead as just a part of the wiring. Unhooking the door lock light has workedas a temporary solution, but I'll be replacing that diode tonight to correct it properly.

Now it's back to work on other items. Unlike Steve Peck's car, I'm not quite "Memphis-ready" yet. I think putting the body back on migh be a good first step in that direction, eh?

Thanks again to everyone for the help!

Hi All,

It seems I have a rather unusual electrical problem with my door locks. andI was hoping some of you electronics gurus might be able to shed some insight onto the situation.
