After getting my recently acquired car up and running (oil, plugs, tube o-rings, serpentine belt), I took it for a night drive and discovered an interesting issue. The door locks would give a definitive "click-click" followed by the interior lights coming on for a brief second. This continued to happen through most of the drive. The car also doesn't lock when I exit with the remote. When I try to lock with the remote, the door locks click twice as if it is locking and then unlocking. I'm assuming it's a door switch, or possibly the micro switches on the handles, but i'm not sure where to start digging in to determine the cause. I have a manual on order as well as the 101 projects book, but unfortunately, they haven't arrived yet. Any help is much appreciated.
