Central locking problem.
« on: 22 September 2007, 19:46:55 »
Hi,
The central locking is not working on the front passenger door. All other doors OK. Any ideas Please?

Fairly common, simply a failed motor in the door.  Replace motor.  Bit fiddly to do, but not too bad.

If there's a glimmer of movement then often the mechanism in the door has just seized up.

Take off the door car (see Maintenance section) clean all linkages on the door lock mechanism. Add some grease.

The door button will be a lot easier to pull up and down and the soleniod will be able to move it.

We had a thread on here last week ref door solonoids and the poll was for drivers door most likley to pack up first and i have just replaced the lock soloniod to my fathers cdx passenger front door. takes about 10 mins to remove the door card and about 10 mins to remove the lock and solonoid. The solonoid is held onto the lock bracket by 2 screws and hooks off the lock.
