I'm changing the power door locks on a '96 B4000. There is a wire attached to them, what does it do and how can I disconnect them? My new locks don't have any provision to attach the wires, any help would be appreciated.
TIA
Jim
 
There should be a rod coming off the top of the motor, and a plug coming from the bottom of the lock motor. That plug will have 2 wires coming from it. You can use a flathead screwdriver to lift the tabs and release the plug. I am not aware any other wires coming from the motor.
 
The wire is attached to the key lock not the lock motor, I think it is part of the anti-theft system. Can I just pull the fuse to disable it and cut the wire? I need to change the locks.
