Reply to "Door Locks Not Locking"

Cyboman, Can you disassemble them? It sounds odd that they would freeze at the same time. I suppose you've tried hooking them up to a battery and performed a bench top test. This would narrow the search somewhat. I'd have to disagree with LPB about the low voltage damaging the windings. With a given resistance the low voltage will cause less heat. Now if there were a short circuit somewhere, but coils rarely short, that would cause excessive heat, but then again I would think that they would be fused and the fuse would blow. Sounds like an "interesting" problem, wish I could be there to help troubleshoot.
