Re: [DML] no door locks

["DMC Joe" <dmcjoe@xxxx>]

The clicking you hear is the door lock circuit breaker. The factory
installed door lock module is sending continuous voltage to the door
solenoids. When the solenoid over heats it causes the circuit breaker to
open and close (clicking). If the module is not disconnected it will destroy
the solenoids, which from your description, may have already happened.

The only reliable solution is to install the Lockzilla, you will probably
have to install new solenoids as well.
