Hi guys
Need your help on this
I have just met with new member Scorcher, he is struggling with posting at the moment so hope it's ok if I start this thread off for him :)
His recently aquired car is a '51 plate manual 2.6 elite saloon. There seems to be a few minor electrical issues starting with this door locking problem .
Locking wont work with the drivers door closed . . . open door . . locking works . . .hold interior light button by door hinge in & locking works.
Any ideas where to start looking ? TIA Al & Scorcher :y

Just to add to the above . . tried a locking re set . .that would not work.
Also all 4 doors lock if sitting in the car & pushing the drivers door button down manually with door closed .
Also tried locking with the fob with the passenger door open . . . nothing happens at all

No Rob not yet . . . did not have much time this afternoon. But can try that next time I see Scorcher.
Have thought about pulling fuse No.7 & then trying then trying the fob . Do you think that may work ?

Sounds like a break/weak spot in the loom between the A post and the drivers door :-\
New drivers door loom probably as easy as repairing the break...

I have noticed on each of the front doors a red wire running alongside the rubber that goes between the door and the a pillar. Is is normal or could this be a previous repair?

There's a thin red plastic strip which is part of the plug assembly on the front door looms...
A pic would be handy :y
