After rechecking my wiring continuity tests and rechecking the inner
workings of the L. door lock motor, I was stumped. The L. lock, when
actuated, would continue to cycle all the locks until the red wire was
disconnected. With it disconnected all locks worked fine from the actuation
of the R. side lock. Then I noticed that the R. lock was not cycling with
the rest when actuated from the L. side.......hmmmm.........so I
disconnected the wire to it, and voila!, no more cycling from the L.! I then
decided to open up the R. motor, cleaned all the contacts, replaced one tiny
broken spring, and all is working perfect again! A new lesson in Vanagon
repair learned today.
