[DML] Re: Dead battery fix was:Lauren's Car

["Toby Peterson" <Toby@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

While not quite as inexpensive as the modification described by 
Elvis, the digital door lock module does eliminate all battery drain 
that is caused by the stock door lock module.  And the digital module 
is "plug and play" and can be installed by anybody who can find their 
way into the relay compartment.  Both DMCH and DPNW had these for 
quite a while, and they are about to become available again from all 
locations in the DMC service network.  The new version is packaged 
slightly differently, but retains all of the advantages that the 
originals had.  They interface seamlessly with all Wings-A-Loft 
systems, including the door lock actuators (that replace the 
solenoids).

PS - Thank you to Elvis for being such an enthusiastic member of the 
DeLorean community.  I look forward to buying you a cool beverage at 
Gettysburg!
