Question
I have a 1984 Chevy K5 Blazer and w/ an alarmed keyless entry.  The other day the drivers side door lock fell down inside the door panel and now that door won't lock.  How do I fix that?  Thank you!

Answer
    You'll have to retrieve the lock from down in the door.  Just remove the door panel (unscrew the armrest and handles, pop loose the clips at the bottom, and lift it clear), and reach down inside the door.  You'll have to make sure you got all the pieces before you seal the door back up (including the wiring and solenoids for the remote keyless entry).
