94 base without anti-theft system. Having an issue were my lock actuators are engaging without pushing the lock button on the switch. So far I've checked the continuity of all the wires to and from the lock relay for the lock and unlock commands as well as the actuator motor. So there are no shorts in the door on the drivers side. I still have to check the passenger side. I have checked to relay for function and continuity and its fine. One thing I do not understand is that the circuit diagram shows two relays and I've found the one under the dash but the one behind the driverside rear panel has the wrong colored wires and does not look like the right relay. the only other relay under that panel is the intermitten wiper relay. I just do not understand how the switch is getting bypassed. Any help would be appreciated?
Possibly ETACS unit? When you put your key in to unlock it does it unlock and lock rapidly? Is there anything else that you are having issues with i.e cruise control, rear defrost, rear window wiper?
It's funny you mention that. I finally found out the short was in the wiring going to that unit. I just unplugged it and the locks work now. Although my cruise does not work still, but it hasn't sine I got the car. The guy said it could e my clockspring.
