    Default Locks Only Work When Car Is On

    Ive looked around and couldn't seem to find anything about this

    Recently I have been unable to lock/unlock my doors when the ignition is off, when i turn the ignition on however, it works perfectly. I checked all the fuses and none seem to be blown.
    It seems to me that this I tripped some sort of security thing because the indicator light doesnt light up when the car is off and also the dome lights do not turn on and the indicator light on the db doesnt light up also when the ignition is off.

    I hope someone could figure this out before i take it in to the dealer

    sounds like a defective door jamb switch. It's conical shaped rubber plunger switch that is pushed in when the door is closed. Unplug each switch one at a time and try to lock the doors. This might help you isolate the defective switch. Report back with what you find.
