Hi all
Wondered if anyone here has any ideas on a couple of electrical problems my '98 Elite has just thrown up?
Yesterday, the drivers electric door stopped moving all the way forward (it looks and sounds like its hitting a limit? but only two inches forward of 'all-the-way-back' position) Fine for me at 6' but 5'2 Mrs Wife is not at all happy :o
Today, went to lock the car up and its gone all irrational on me. Whenever I press lock or unlock, or even use the key something different happens! Sometimes it locks all doors, sometimes one door or two. Sometimes just the boot. Tried resync-ing key and all but to no avail. Even when I lock with the key, the other doors wont lock/unlock. Confused the h*ll out of me?!

The door doesn't slide forward ;)
The seat not moving is invariably a coin jammed in runner.
Not sure about locking issue...

Can you reset the central locking the same as the mini facelift?
-
might want to check the wiring where it goes through into the door. as for the seat its just like TB says, check the runners for obstructions.
-
Sorry chaps, electric door eh? ::) Will I never learn...
Anyway, had a good prod around the length of runners with a length of slim brass rod and cant see or feel any obstruction. Surely a coin would be easy enough to see? V. curious...
What is the first part of the seat / runner assembly to take apart so I can get to it, any ideas?
On the plus side, played with the wiring through the door as per Tims suggestion and all locking working again!!!
Guess that means a closer inspection somewhen.
Good job Tim, much obliged
