Hi I have been having a problem in the cold (mild, like 30) that my driver's door won't unlock by power locks. When colder it won't unlock by power, key or by hand. When you open it from the inside there is very strong resistance when you pull the inside door handle and then the door usually won't relatch until it warms up a bit. When it is being bad the lock thingy appears partially locked (inbetween up and down) and won't move at all until it lets go then all is normal door will latch lock unlock etc and all is well until the following morning. when it is like this the little latch is moveable but the key cylinder and the lock thing on the door are rock solid stuck in place... Anybody run into this before?
Secondly, um, I lost my temper a bit driving to work, now late, while holding the door shut and occasionally trying to slam the door and make it latch by anger magic Then I decided to pull over and start pulling fuses to see If I could cut the juice to the pwer locks which of course realize that the door is open and then obsessively try to lock the doors every like 3 seconds with an amazing single mindedness.... which was draining the battery noticeably even while driving. With the car still running (it was morning...) on the side of the street, I pulled fuses 6 and 7 but don't think i ever did find out what one the locks really are on... Eventually it finally let go and started working So on the way home at 5 in the dark (love that MN winter ughk!) I find out that my autolamp feature is dead. I put the fuses back in and still dead. Anybody know what I did? I kinda liked that...
PS the antiheft light blinks when I don't lock the car as it should. But if I lock it, it used to come on solid for a bit and then go out. I noticed that it when I lock the car it just goes out immediately as of a few months ago and I am not sure what to think of that... And the car has a habit of doing the obsessive locking of the doors thing sometimes which contributes to it's occasional battery/starting issues which are mild but have never really been entirely solved...
Thanks Timothy
