Buick Regal electric problem

Sep 29, 2005 2 Replies

Hi,



Buick Regal 93 3.8, when using LOCK button on any of the two front doors, the 15amp courtesy fuse blows, looks like a short to me, but where?



Remote control work for unlocking but not for locking, when I push the lock button, the courtesy light lit for about half a second and nothing append to the locks...normaly, the door are supposed to lock and courtesy lights should stay on for several seconds....



I noticed that the passenger side floor mat is soaked with water, any relation?



What I did so far:



Removed chime module with AutoDoorLock, no luck Reached the interior of right side dash via kickpanel in search of water evidence...none found.


Any clue?

Check wetness for anti-freeze, which would indicate a heater core gone bad, leaking into floorboard. Some, not great, possibility that wetness has shorted wiring to door locks & causing the fuses to blow. HTH, s

Yeah, fortunatly, it's plain water, mind you, all this happened after a good rain...

Cant locate the source of the water infiltration...will do some more digging this weekend...

will take a closer look at the doorlock relay...
