    My 1994 Legand has long had a door lock problem. When the door lock is set,
    all doors lock OK, but the switch on the left rear door clicks. The lock
    doesn't open, but there is a continuous click, click, click. This
    apparently caused the car alarm to activate at in-opertune times like in the
    middle of the night. Through this forum, I got information on how to
    deactivate the car alarm which was a success with no false alarms since
    then. (Who pays any attention to car alarms anyway).
    Now a new problem has come up, probably due to the same switch.
    Intermittantly all the doors will lock without any activation of any kind.
    I will intermittantly find the doors are locked when I get out of the car.
    This is not a big deal, but it brought the car wash to a halt when they
    couldn't get into the car! The Honda expert on this forum pointed out that
    it would cost several hundred dollars to change this door switch. That is
    why I deactivated the car alarm. Now I need to deactivate this switch. I
    am still perfectly able to pull the door lock post if I need to unlock the
    door, I did it for many years on older cars. If I pull the wires on this
    switch will all the remaining doors be electrically inoperative as well?
