Subject:89 syncro westy electric door locks
From:Mick Kalber

The electric door locks on my 89 syncro westy have a mind of their own.  I'm
sure many of you have had this happen... I even had it happen in my 88
wolfie once, but I can't remember what the solution was.  When either of the
front doors is unlocked it automatically locks itself again.  If I'm quick
and I open the door before it locks again, the locking system cycles locked,
unlocked, locked, unlocked as long as the door is open.  When the door is
shut it automatically locks itself and shuts down.  Side door can be opened
independently... rear door must be opened while one of the front doors is
open and cycling.
Drives me nuts!

TIA
