Title: Central Door Locking Unlocking/Relocking itself!!
Post by: MG on 18 November 2008, 09:49:48

Hi,

I have a 1999 V6 Elite and just recently the Central Door Locking has developed a fault. When I lock the car using the key-fob or using key in lock, the car unlocks itself about 10 seconds later!!

Sometimes when I park up and close the doors, before I have a chance to lock the car, she decides to lock herself!!!

Has anyone else had this problem??

Does anyone have a fix for me please.

Many thanks,

Mel.

check your wiring going into the drivers door, make sure the plug is o.k & dry, then check the wires that go to the plug for any cuts etc as they can get broken due to the door opening & closing. ;)

Likely to be a lazy motor or the mechanisms need a good lubricating, door card off job.  :y
