Troubleshooting 99 Ram Electric Door Locks
Troubleshooting 99 Ram Electric Door Locks
My driver's door lock switch does not work. Right door works fine, lock and unlock, and key FOB also locks and unlocks both doors. I have pulled the switch set out of the driver's door and have power going through the switch, out to pink/purple strip, and orange/purple stripe, depending on which way I am pushing the button.
I was thinking a broken wire of the two I just mentioned, but I think it is less likely that both wires are broken than just one, and if only one wire was broken wouldn't I have either up or down on that switch?
I have pulled the rubber conduit from the door side and what wires I can see in there look fine.
I'm starting to think that whatever break there is will be inside the insulation and I will have to track it down by probing the wire every so often along the length. Hate to punch holes in good wire insulation though.
Ideas appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
