Ok, here is an interesting one for all you vette experts. We put new doors on our 84 vette because we got a smokin deal on a pair with good window motors, door panels and the like. Since I am the wiring "expert" (term used loosely) I did the intricate, delicate, surgury of splicing all the %$$*&! wires together. Since then, the door locks were the only thing that didn't work and I have been hesitant to tear back into it.
Well today, I was sitting in the car, trying to figure out why our radio stopped working and for the heck of it I hit the lock switches and they worked! At least for about four times. Also, when I hit the lock switch, the security light that normally always blinks on the console stayed on and when I hit the unlock it started blinking (like it is supposed to). Great but then all of a sudden the door switches stopped working and now I hear this click behind where the middle console area is; where the security light blinks. Is there a relay back there? Why would they work mysteriously for a few tries then quit? Apparently I did wire them up right and there is another problem. Any suggestions?
Also, another weird thing that happens. If I put the fuse in for the interior lights, the back hatch switch on the door panels WON'T work. If I remove the fuse they work. Weird - any suggestions on that one?
