Live and learn I guess.
Re: Testing vacuum pump-central locking system
Boy you're telling me (hard to diagnose). I've got the whole car ripped apart. Now I have to just put it all back together. I've thought about selling this car several times but just can't bring myself to part with it. This little SRT just really runs great and there's not a bunch of them on the road. I'm extremely happy with the MPG for the power it has. My neighbor is ticked off because he can't stay with me at all in his Mustang GT.

Re: Testing vacuum pump-central locking system
From vacuum pump: 2 pipes for doors and trunk, 1 pipe for gas door and storage lock.
When normaly gas door and storage lock are closed/opened?
This is strange that storage lock and gas door are closed/open in the same time.
In my car this was not work ok (gas door always closed, I must opened from trunk).
But I fix this problem. In vacuum pump is electric valve. Normaly always open only for trunk and doors (gas door and storage closed). I make that all open.
Now doors, trunk, gas door and storage are close or open in the same time.
Anybody can explain how it works oryginaly?

Re: Testing vacuum pump-central locking system
Your car seems to have a lot of problems unfortunately.
Re: Testing vacuum pump-central locking system
My electric pump have 3-5 cm styrofoam base, I hope that will be no problem with water (and car is all time in garage, I only use it for fun).
Car have many problems becouse was cheap but every problems are trifle, I like work in garage, for me it's better than crossword puzzle and most I can fix myself with your help

You have a GREAT outlook on life (at least in regards to external car things)! I must comment on your comment @ ("My electric pump have 3-5 cm styrofoam base, I hope that will be no problem with water"). In this case nothing can prevent problems with your central locking module when water intrusion comes into contact with this module. I stand corrected, if you totally SEALED (which cannot be done) this part you can prevent moisture problems BUT you may have forgot this module relies on an air pump! A pump like this NEEDS an air intake, hence any sealing of the unit being impossible. Check for moisture/water there, too many have found out the longer it sits there, the more costly to fix!
It may be something else, but checking for this issue (which has caused far too many of the same problems you experience) is FREE! It could save you a lot of $ (in your funds). If that module is even slightly damaged, it could explain your problem. Water intrusion is a known problem with this component. Good luck!
Re: Testing vacuum pump-central locking system
I suppose you can move it higher? Never heard or seen anyone else do that before. Just be careful with routing the wires (and most importantly) those fragile air lines. I have read they get a little brittle, the older they get.
