Accord door lock problem
For about two months I haven't been able to keep my '94 Accord EX
locked. When my (power) locks are triggered, it will keep triggering over and over and won't stop. It started when it did it a couple of times, then a few more and now it just keeps going endlessly. I can't fully lock my car because manually locking the driver's side door triggers the power lock system. I don't know if it's related, but my AutoPage alarm system that must be connected to the power lock system (it has the lock/unlock buttons I used since I bought the car) stopped working a month or so before this. It seemed like it was in valet mode, but I followed the directions to get the alarm system out of valet mode and it never would. All I can find online is a problem with the door lock actuator, but I'm not convinced since it's usually that the door stops locking when it's an actuator problem, not that the door keeps locking. I'm a college student living on campus and I'm so nervous about someone stripping my car. What are the possible problems, and which is the most likely? |

If the lock actuators are anything like the ones in my 92 Acura Legend, then you have the same symptoms I did. I would lock the doors via the lock button, shut the door, and it would start cycling trying to lock the doors over and over and over... It would even start doing this while it was sitting in the driveway, hours after it had been locked. I went to one of the Acura Legend sites and followed the directions there to remove the lock actuators and check a rubber bumper in there to see if it was worn or broken. They were fine, and when I put everything back together, I never had the problem again. It may have been the connectors on the wiring to the lock actuator, and it went away when I disconnected them to take the actuators out and reconnected them when I put them back in. -- Mike Iglesias Email: University of California, Irvine phone: 949-824-6926 Network & Academic Computing Services FAX: 949-824-2069 |
