Greetings,

I have a '91 with electric door locks. Unfortunately, it's been sitting a
lot lately and I don't have a trickle charger on it (yet), so the battery
got low. I was able to unlock the driver's side door and I heard the slider
unlock as well, but when I tried to turn over the engine, it gave one crank
and croaked.

Hook the battery up to a charger overnight, which gave it some juice, but
not enough to crank (I suspect the battery is toast now). The big change is
that the driver's door lock would not unlock. The key would not physically
turn counterclockwise, nor can I pull it up from within the car.

I'm hoping one of you will tell me this happens when a battery runs low,
but I expect I'm going to need a new door lock (to go along with the new
battery I'm about to buy).

Any thoughts?

Thanks mucho,
-MB
