Aaron I just went through the same thing last night. Get a panel popper (a tool to remove the door panels) from an auto parts store. It looks like a bent screwdriver with a forked tongue. Use this to remove the interior door panel of the drivers door after unbolting the armrest and the inner latch cover. Once the panel is loose you will need to disconnect the two speaker wires. The problem is likely in the linkage of the drivers door only, but could be in any of the other doors as well. It is almost always form inadequate lubrication. Peel back the clear plastic liner from the lock corner of the inside of the door after the panel is removed. Now spray a good lubricant (triflow or liquid wrench with teflon or some good silicone lubricant) on all of the lock linkage. Work the linkage manually back and forth a few dozen times and see if it gets smoother. My educated guess is that your lock will start working. The driver's door lock master switch sends a signal to the other door motors and the dry linkage will not allow the key linkage to operate that master switch fully enough to send that signal. Let us know how it turns out. Sorry to wait so long to answer, but this is my first post to Disco web. Cheers Alden 95 Ebay disco with ARB Winch bumper (currently without winch) |
