1997 Chevrolet Lumina Repair Question
POWER LOCKS
Answer
check the battery inthe remote first then get your book to see if it needs reporgramming.
When I hit the lock button on the remote my lights flash, it just doesn't lock the vehicle. It doesn't bother me too much just as long as I can install the new switch without it being burned out or something. It's kinda weird how both switches went out within a week.
you could have a bad receiver or relay that is notworking right aswell. with teh aftermarket remotes you should have received a trouble shooting step by step to see what the problem is.
find the entry module.there are 2 wires that oper. the locks.youll need to check them for the lock and unlock signal from the module.if yes follow the wires to where they spliced in.this is where your problem is.the remote is good because the lights flash when you hit the remote.this module is usally under the left side of dash.
Where is the relay for the locks located? I'm going to check the module and relay tomorrow.
check around the under dash as it's aftermarket so hard telling where they put it. if it were factory it would be in the underhood electrical center. I would imagine it would be under the left side where the other module is
the relay is fine because the door switchs oper.
