    After 2 months of being away from the car, with it on a maintainer, I don't hear the door locks locking and unlocking when I press the key fob any ideas appreciate it.

    the batteries in the fob are probably 2 years old. When I get back home in an hour I'll try the other fob and check the maintainer. Fyi the main battery is 3 months old

    O k if I turn the key to the right like this, I hear a constant click click click coming from under the dash, and it keeps clicking until I turn it all the way to the left. And either way I turn the key i don't it lock

    Ok so i zeroed in on it. i was listening for the clicking. As I listen, the lock mechanism up and down and I found that it was coming from the driver's side left footwell. so all I did was pull the carpet out a little bit and the doors locked. so apparently something is loose, and i'm hoping it's just a loose wire back there

    That’s where the Window ECU is, so there will be a lot of door-related wiring there. Check for ECU plug security and that the pins and sockets are not contaminated. Most power wires are on the top plug.

    Thanks Ian I appreciate that info. I have a feeling it's just a pin that may have some corrosion. It’s amazing what will happen after being away from the car. I think what I'll do is tomorrow i'll shut the power off to the car and unplug those plugs a couple times. Maybe that will scrape off any possible corrosion that may be there. I'll keep the threads updated Thanks
