It's a '94 Integra that recently had a new alarm put in, since the old one failed..but recently the driver's door lock doesn't lock when either the remote for the alarm is pushed to activate the powerlock, or when the powerlock switch within the door is pushed.
When you do either, the lock will move a little bit, but won't go all the way. The only way to actually lock the door is to physically push it when inside the car, or using the key on the outside to do so.
What currently happens when you hit the powerlock switch is that it basically acts like the door is open, because if anyone's familiar with these types of cars..what happens if you try to hit the switch when the door is open, the lock will move a little bit, but won't go all the way as to lock it..this is to prevent you from locking yourself out. So now what's happening is that it's doing this even when the door is closed.
Is there a simple fix to this problem, or what can I do?
