Door locks and remote entry worked fine prior to my trying to install door locks to Bulldog remote starter system using their wiring diagrams and instructions, on 99 chevy astro with 88,000 miles It didn't work, removed the newly installed wiring. Smelled like electrical burning. Now, have No remote key entry at all. Locks work intermitting from switch on the drivers door. However, Drivers doesn't lock or unlock with power. Ran 12volts directly from the battery, to drivers door actuator ,worked both ways. Voltage at actuator plugin was 11.24 volts at best on one side , the rest of the readings were under.30 volts either direction,,Also the dome light doesn't come on when the door is open, I think I need a new light switch, because the override doesn't work at all. Please tell me where the lock relay is located, so I can change it If a signal is sent from the drivers lock switch to the other locks and they work a couple of times, I don't think it is that switch, Bulldog has been little and no help on this issue. Can you help???
