I have a 73 Duster that I am installing an alarm and power door locks on and I just can't seem to get them to work. So here is what's going on now.
Door locks: Key on - both door locks work, correct.
            Key off - both door locks don't work, correct
            Key on with the alarm hooked up - both locks
            barely move.
Alarm:      Key on - both door lock don't work, correct
            Key off - both door locks barely move.
            Key off with the drivers side door lock
            disconnected - alarm button sets the alarm
            and locks both doors.
I have two relays hooked up for the alarm and they seem to be working fine. I feel like power is getting back to the door switch when I set the alarm, but I don't know how the fix it. Thanks for any help you can provide.

where did you get 12v for the relays....AND, I believe that you might have one, or both of the relays wired incorrectly.

When you say "key on"...what posistion, accs, or ign. ?

What type of alarm?
