I'll call you Colin

Hey guys I have a question. On Cynda's 1994 Camry, the automatic door locks and windows are not working on any of the doors. So if she presses the lock/unlock or to wind the windows down, on any door, it won't work. But the alarm does lock and unlock all the doors. What do you guys think the problem is?

I'm pretty sure it is not the actuators and I don't think its the fuse because the alarm will still lock and unlock all the doors (couldn't check because whoever installed the alarm did a micky mouse job and there are wires everywhere). I don't think the switch on all four doors would go out simultaneously. Thanks for the input.

thats a good question Ji, let me meditate on it....

Finally! My 1st background interview with CHP next week, wish me luck...

GL colin

Is any1 here planning on buying a clip for a turbo swap??

datguydeni · 10-27-2009, 02:21 PM

does mark still have his 91 shell? that he was parting out.

sandiego87mr2 · 10-27-2009, 02:49 PM

Original 87 MR2 White with t tops. 96k miles. no rust. I have wanted one of these (MK1) since I was 10 years old. It seems to be running great right now but I don't know a ton about cars but am hoping to find a good mechanic in North-East San Diego to help me out. I was really surprised @ all of the compliments and offers to buy the car in the first couple weeks owning it.

Looking forward to getting to some owners club events...

honda_bar · 10-27-2009, 10:11 PM

welcome brother!

Deni I believe he still has his shell...Feel like welding all 3 pieces of it together though?

datguydeni · 10-27-2009, 10:33 PM

Serious about what?

Mark_Dorman · 10-27-2009, 10:33 PM

Well if Christian had thought about it before we tore the car apart I could have saved the shell for him.

randomxzero · 10-27-2009, 11:44 PM
