Thanks in advance for the help.
1998 K2500 Ext Cab 2 door Power Lock, Key fob
Got as used
1st) driver door jamb switch busted
2nd) driver seat belt connector wire was cut
3rd) right pivot ball joint bad
4th) right hub bearing going out
5th) No Inside Power lock switches working
6th) Lower radiator hose pin hole leak
My biggest concern/issue is that the key fob and key is the only way to unlock and lock doors. Locks on switches do not work, manually unlocking and locking doors do not work.
Saturday found the drivers side black (Negative) wire from lock harness FIRED and MELTED. So I traced the wire back to were the broken connection was and replaced a good 12" section of wire. Worked fine, until I hit a bump in the road, now the windows do not work unless I wiggle the lock harness a little. The black Negative wire till gets pretty hot.
Could this possibly be that;
1) I need a new wire harness for the switch all together?
2) Need a new switch assembly?
3) need a new lock motor?
I have check all my connections in the doors and under the dash. Have replaced all my fuses and relays with new.
