Both the locks and the power seats share a 20 amp circute braker. This is likely the problem. It is located in the instament panel fuse box. Very inexpensive. Replace and check back. Good luck

Re: door locks and power seat Sign In

The breaker is the only thing that the power seats and the door locks have in common. Unless there are two separate problems, than this is the place to focus you attention. You said that there is no power at the lock switches, there should be at the switch at all times. The orange wire will be constant power. If the breaker is new than there is probably a break in the wire somewhere. Even though you can not see the break, it may still be there. You will have to either ohm the wire from breaker to switch to find break, or test the wire for power every few inches from the breaker to the switch.

Re: door locks and power seat Sign In

Jeff Checked for breaks from breaker to seat switch with ohm meter found nothing but when I took out the new breaker it was very hot. What I think might be happening is something getting the breaker hot causing the seat and door lock switch not to work. Anyway I unpluged the autuation module to see if the breaker will heat up. The seat switch works and all the door locks work except the drivers door. Naturualy the keyless entry is not working . Harry.480
