The electric locks do not work on my 82 (haven't since I bought it.)  Is there a source of information that will help me troubleshoot this problem?

I just got my door locks working.  I bypassed the connector and found a  bad ground  wire at  the connector in the passengers door.   Working great!  Good luck!!!
