Power door locks won't work- circuit breaker sparks when installed and gets hot. This car doesn't have keychain remote.

you have a wire grounding out somewhere and most likely you will find it in the boot that connects drivers door to car. inside the rubber boot the wires break over time due to opening and closing of the door, i use a razor blade and cut the bottom of the boot to access
