Rick:
Your troubleshoot of my problem is correct. I just had the Shutoff Valve at IP replaced today and my door locking/unlocking functions are back to normal (about 8 times before I exhaust the residual vacuum after the engine has been stopped).
BTW, I tested the old leaking Shutoff Valve and the lever fully-retracted after two full pump strokes on the MityVac (still able to shutdown the engine) but does not hold vacuum.
Thanks for the help.
