Help... Car doing weird things!!!
Help... Car doing weird things!!!
So I replaced my steering wheel over the weekend and everything went fine (I only say this because it may be realated to my problem) but I had to RE-remove it afterward to readjust its position, but the second time I didnt undo the battery before the adjustment. I just removed the 2 screws & bolt and readjusted, never disconnected anything.
Well that was yesterday, I drove around and everything worked fine the rest of the day. Now this evening I try to unlock the doors with the fob and the drivers side didnt unlock (I initially think its the fob battery even though the lights confirm when I hit the lock button). Later in the day, the passenger side goes too and wont unlock either when I try it, OR the trunk when I check it at this point. I try it from the inside of the car and it doesnt work on either door, or trunk. I hear what sounds like the power struggling to turn the locks over...
Later in the night I had to pry my eschutheon (part that conceals the drivers lock) off just to get in. I drive to my friends house and when I go to leave, I open the door and the panic/horn starts blasting, which I cant shut off for the life of me....
What the heck is going on with my car?

Its not working again. Both door locks wont flip over from the fob, yet when I arm the locks I get a confirmation blink from the front lights. Im begining to think that, or that maybe the door actuators have gone bad...The trunk lock works like a charm though now and had not worked before when I initially ran into this problem.
Im going to try the battery unplug test first. If that doesnt work, cant you reset the actuators themselves inside the doors? I just cant believe they both went bad at the very same time. It would be too much of a coincidence with me fooling around with the steering wheel/unpluggin the battery etc. a day earilier... Well see
