Solved Door Lock Gremlin

After two times when the door locks failed I finally found the problem. The guys who installed my stereo cut a protective boot and never replaced it, the wiring harness rubbed for 2 years until it found bare wire. The first time the guy who fixed it shorted the system, this time I caught it before this could happen. The first time cost me over $400 and I remember the stereo shop saying they cover the installation for life, I took all the paperwork needed and they are paying me $447.00 for the first job. I am happy now and I should not see another problem with the door locks....I hope.

Re: Solved Door Lock Gremlin

It is a local stereo shop, Vandenberg Stereo. That is why I had them wire the truck, that and with the DVD I wanted it done right. It sure paid off. It was too bad they did not protect the wire better, even I would have done better than this. I would never have known if it had not happened again. The guy who fixed it should have seen the wire the first time though, it was very plain to see.
