Struggling here, so need some expert advice:
Have a 99 ML320 and the rear nearside lock decided not to play with the rest of the central locking system. I can operate it manually etc so i presumed the motor was toast. Managed to buy a secondhand lock which i plugged into the loom yesterday to try before i ripped the old one out. The new lock seemed to work fine a couple of times but then also decided it wasnt going to operate anymore.
Ive tried wriggling wires, unplugging/plugging etc. but i couldnt get it to function again. This obviously leads me to the opinion ive just fried the new lock as well....doh
As i dont have a manual for the connector pinouts to check voltages, does anybody have any ideas? Out of interest, i did notice a small microswitch on the lock...whats this for? Please help!!!
