Default Power locks

Yo my power locks stopped working and I took it apart my door. Apparentlly no wires are cut. I took the Power Lock Control out and it is obviously a new replacement does anyone know how to test the continuity of it. Or anything else that I can test to try and get them to work. Any help by tonight would be appreciated.

did you check with voltmeter? if not this is how you should do it;

1) with voltmeter choose one wire and attach positive probe to it and other to ground.

2) now push unlock button and see if it reads 0 volt or 12 volts

3) now put probe in other wire and push same unlock button. it should be opposite of other wire

4) now go back to other wire you first tested and push lock button and see if you get 0 or 12 volts

5) now do same thing in other wire and it should read opposite.

if you got the proper voltage readings then you wiring and fuses are fine it will be a defective motor which can be replaced by aftermarket actuactors which cost less than honda part.

if you didnt get these readings then wiring is bad and you might wanna check fuses. If your fuses are bad most likely controll unit under dash is bad which is basically factory controlled relays. good luck

do the same test procedure to see if your getting power when youre not supposed to. If you have an aftermarket alarm it may be wired wrong.
