the factory power door lock system is in that rubber hose going from the car to the door.
if you have some aftermarket wiring for the door locks, then you're not gonna find it in some factory wiring diagram
So I found this mess while washing my car recently, I always wondered why my aftermarket alarm didn't work with my power locks anymore, and well, my power locks failed all together. But this wire is at an odd place and looks to be shoddily wrapped in electrical tape. It got caught in the door hinge and was sheared in half.
Can anyone identify that this is indeed the wire to the power lock system? And if so, anyone know where I can get a diagram/schematic? I plan to put my soldering skills to use and fix this but the fray is such a mess I don't know if it's just one wire or a few all together.
Here's some picsss.....

are you sure the front wires don't go to speakers?
the thick rubber thing in the back looks pinched bad too. take the door panel off and see where everything goes.

The speakers work fine, that's the first thing I ruled out, they're aftermarket so I assumed the best-buy drone goofed. The alarm itself still works like the ignition kill and the shock sensor, so I'm starting to agree on that it has to be a crappy wiring job that tied the alarm to the power locks. I won't have time to personally get the door panel off anytime soon (I just moved and am unpacking and such), so thank you Galanttuner10 for your time in taking your panel off for me.
no problem i even took it off again earlier to double check glad it helps you out.. that wire should have been run where the speaker wires and all that goes into the door but it looks like they took out the lock wires and decided not to run it back in the stock location
any other problems let us know
