not sure about your situation, but when it rains my door locks tend to lock and unlock by themselves when I'm driving, much worse in the winter and I'm assuming that's because they dont dry off well in the cold, so my guess is that they are vulnerable to water shorts
Front Door Latches-Again
Back for more advice.
4 months ago when I purchased my 99' Range Rover I replaced both front door latches and everything was great until last night.
Last night went to Costco and of course it was rainning, and when I came back to the Rover both front doors did not respond when I tried to unlock and lock the Rover with the remote. :x
I know these go bad but so soon and both at the same time?
Could the rain be playing a factor with moisture to the motors or a short?
Also the dome light stopped responding when any of the doors are opened, inlcuding the rears.
When I purchased the Rover this was also happening but when I replaced both front latches it corrected the problem, or could this be an indicator of another underlying problem.
Did anyone find where the electric motors in the door lactches can be purchased, with the extended shafts?
Thanks.
