    Odd locking issue

    hello,

    2004 aero convertible. Just changed the driver side door lock as the old one was not working and kept getting SID message saying door locks failure.

    Now the door locks work as intended using the fob. No more SID messages, not Tech II codes. HOWEVER. the buttons on both doors no longer work, nor does the button for the trunk??

    Checked all wiring and it seems to be okay. WIS says that there is no separate fuse for this system.

    What should I check next?

    Two questions

    New or used part installed?
    Did you marry module to vehicle?

    Answer; Used.. and yes I did.

    Oddly enough, today it started working 4 days after putting it in.. have no idea why, but I'll leave it up to 'Saab Gremlins"...LOL

    At least, now I get no more SID messages for anything being wrong...
