Well, coincidentally I happened to tear into my front door lock servos this
weekend--they were way wiggy.  I disassembled each of them, and they were
full of corrosion and in generally sub-optimal condition.  After re-habing
each, I was finally able to get the passenger side servo to completely lock
the van (none had worked before), but the driver's side still won't stay
locked, or induce the others to lock.  I guess I'm left with troubleshooting
the wiring as my last best chance here, eh?
