My power door locks stopped working only from the inside door locks as well as my power antenna. Door locks work fine with remote. Checked all fuses and they are fine. What else am I missing???

Re: Door locks and power antenna not working??

Check the fuses underneath the black sound insulator under the dash on the passenger side. That's is where the power lock fuse is. There is a label on the inside of the sound insulator that shows what each fuse and relay is for down there. Are you sure your power antenna internal gear isn't broken? Have someone turn on and off the radio while you listen for it in the trunk. If you're not getting anything, I believe the power antenna fuse is on the driver side fuse panel..and the relay for it is actually attached to it.

Re: Door locks and power antenna not working??

Hi, my park is a 1992 and I hate to sound dumb but am I looking for fuse under the passenger on the inside of the car or outside in the engine compartment? Thanks again!!

Inside the car, passenger side, near where the passengers feet go. Black plastic sound insulator where the courtesy light is attached.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there a ground wire in the trunk for both?

YEA!!! You Rule!! Both are working now. I even called dealer and auto shop and they both said no fuses on inside passenger side, just drivers side. Glad to know there are people like you out there!!!

Re: Door locks and power antenna not working??

Funny thing why I know this, a 'buddy' of mine was attempting to eh, hem, install a power antenae in place of one that wasn't in a Bonneville. Well, he was successful in getting the power to it,, but then the car was in need of a exercism when the radio was turned on/off, all the windows and door locks, along with the sentinal lights in the rear went looney Dippy spliced into that ground not thinking about the motors reversing action of ground to power to go uppy/downy.

Re: Door locks and power antenna not working??

Well, I kinda have the same problem with a different twist..

I have a 1992 Buick Park Avenue. I also have a daughter that breaks everything she touches

The car has been a real nice vehicle for a couple of years now. My daughter used it one night and by morning the battery was dead. I thought she left something on, so I charged the battery and put it back in the car. Next morning it was dead again. I checked it out and there is a draw on the battery when the key is off. The only thing different is the power door locks and trunk release do not work with the remote any more. They work manualy but not with the remote. When I go to connect the ground cable (after the pos.) I hear a clicking noise in something that looks like a little compressor mounted to the drivers side fender well. This could be the short. Does this compressor looking thing have anything to do with the door locks? It has stopped making the noise but must be connected to the problem or at least is on the same circuit. I put an ampmeter between one battery post and the cable and lifted all the fuses. none of them dropped the draw on the battery. Any ideas?

Thanks
