The 83 SD has an electric auxillary vacuum pump located in the spare tire well wedged in next to the spare. It's sole purpose in life is to come to life when you actuate either the front doors or the trunk which will lock or unlock all the doors. Disconnect the power lead to the pump and good luck tracking down what sounds like at least 2 electrical problems. Hopefully niether are related.
