95 Civic Doors won't lock
The car came with an alarm when purchased new. The alarm
locked/unlocked the manual door locks when activated/deactivated. After recently jump-starting the vehicle (left headlights on), the red light on the dash indicating valet mode for the alarm remained on and I couldn't activate the alarm. After pulling out the fuse and putting it back in, the alarm activates and deactivates as before. However, the doors won't lock when activating the alarm. And I can't lock them manually from inside the car or by using the key. Any clues on how to resolve this. Thanks for any help. |

switch from valet mode? t |

The alarm doesn't lock them anymore, and I can't lock them manually with the keys nor from the inside by pressing the lever/latch in. It won't give. |

It won't give. When you say you can't even lock the doors manually, do you mean that locking the driver's door (with key or knob) does not cause the other doors to lock, or do you mean that you can not even lock the driver's door using the key in the driver's door or using the knob on the driver's door? Does the lock on the passenger side work if you use the key in the passenger side or the knob on the passenger side? When you try to lock the doors, do you hear any unusual sounds (like the lock actuators trying to lock and then immediately reversing to unlock)? -- ================================================== ===== A very modest collection of Honda tech info can be found at: http://www.geocities.com/ng_randolph |

The key won't turn I can't even press the latch inside the car (on either side) into the locked position. Both are stuck in the open position. It's like something is broken, preventing the doors from locking. > When you try to lock the doors, do you hear any unusual sounds (like the > lock actuators trying to lock and then immediately reversing to unlock)? No sound at all. > > -- > ================================================== ===== > A very modest collection of Honda tech info can be found at: > http://www.geocities.com/ng_randolph The fuses are OK. The alarm arms just fine. |
