Need some help fixing some things
I would love to keep the RX, but I am now fully pursuing rally racing and feel that the RX-7 is not the ideal platform. These problems didn't bother me because I was just going to use it for racing, but the future buyer will likely want them fixed.
1. Driver side door will not un-lock from the outside
2. Passenger side door will not open from the outside
3. Blower motor worked one day and hasn't worked since
4. Hatch openiing button doesn't work
5 Add coolant light is on even though it is full
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

1) probably a bad lock
2) probably broken handle (connection to the rod inside the door breaks)
3) could be fuse, blower motor, motor resistor pack, etc.
4) could be fuse, the switch itself, or wiring
5) replace coolant level sender (top of radiator), check wiring to sender

1. Driver side door will not un-lock from the outside
Pull off door panel and see if connection is present to lock assembly from key unit
2. Passenger side door will not open from the outside
Pull off door panel and check that connection is present from handle assembly to the lock assembly (they are adjustable)
3. Blower motor worked one day and hasn't worked since
Check fuse, check connector on fan assembly, replace - simple enough job to get too. (doubt switch is bad but you could check that as well)
4. Hatch openiing button doesn't work
Check fuse, ground at actuator, actuator
5 Add coolant light is on even though it is full
Is wire broken on top of radiator?
My suggestions are based upon FB not SA...
