I go out there and the doorlock on the driver side was missing. With just my luck my alarm remote broke early that day when I dropped my keys so I was manually locking and unlocking with the key. Anyway I try to open it up from the passenger side door and the alarm goes off finnaly I got the truck started and got home and couldn't lock the damn truck. I was wondering if I pulled the fuses for the alarm and doorlocks if I would be able to lock the door manually than shut the door without them unlocking? Will I have to replace the hole door handle or or just the lock itself? It looks like it was pulled out clean with not much damage. The truck is a 96 D1   Bill M.

The lock actuator that locks/unlocks the door electrically also sets the alarm. I won't go into the rest on an open board.

There are a number of parts yards in the area. It sounds like they got the tumbler which sucks. Probly get a used one and take the key and lock and have them set the tumblers.

Wouldn't you be able to lock the doors that way? I am sure that my memory has failed me and there probably isnt a doorlock in the back door.   Prescottj (Prescottj) Member Username: Prescottj Post Number: 173 Registered: 12-2002 Posted on Sunday, February 16, 2003 - 08:30 pm:    The driver's side door is the only lock that locks em all and sets the alarm . the back door and passenger door locks don't unlock them all just that door only   Carl D.

So the Disco alarm is not set but it's locked. It's a huge PITA and I'm gonna try to find a tumbler this week.
