Subject:'90 syncro power locks
From:Ray Perry

My '90 syncro westy has a problem with the passenger door lock.  It
refuses to open unless the door lock pin is pulled with great force and
the door lever is pulled at the same time.  The power locks work fine on
the remainder of the locks on the van.  Once the door is open it remains
"unlocked", but as soon as it is latched it is locked.  I do not hear
any motor working when I use the key in either side door lock or when
the door is closed.

I have experienced some "possesed" locking cycles at times in the recent
past, but these have come and gone.  Seems this creature does not want
to let my passengers out.   What's a guy to do?  Any ideas?  TIA
