Title: Central locking won't work with fobs
Post by: Arrolman on 28 August 2008, 18:48:37

Hi,

I can't get either of my fobs to lock my car, both were working fine this morning, new batteries put in each couple of days ago. Any suggestions? If I lock the doors manually either outside or inside they all lock

Cheers,
Iain

Try resetting them by turning on the ignition and holding one of the buttons on the fob while ignition is on.  You should hear the car locks move if it is successful.

This happened to mine a while back .... using the fob the door buttons went down then popped back up again but was fine using the key ... turned out to be one of the motors i think .

Hi,

Mine aren't doing anything, don't know why it would lock all doors with the key but won't with the fobs, would this not indicate that the motors were still working?

Cheers,
Iain

Sounds like they need re-synching - as above - key in ignition, turn on & press one of the buttons - you should hear doors lock & unlock.  Should then work ok. :y

Edit - extract from manual -

"Synchronizing remote control
In the event of malfunctions, synchronize remote control:
[ch9632] Switch on ignition; system will then remain in synchronizing mode for 30 seconds.
[ch9632] Briefly press button = or  <  on the remote control unit while the unit is in the ignition.
[ch9632] The central locking system locks and unlocks to show that the remote control
has been synchronized."

Hope this helps
