nemo_arta Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 i have been looking into why my central locking wont unlock by button.. I have discovered i have a fault on the front driverside door lock mech. Does anyone know hoe easy it is to take these off and replace the hole lock mechanism? thanks in advance Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheekymonkey Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I have a similar fault on the passenger side, so less critical. I lost the ability to lock via electronic command. Diagnostics showed the the signal to lock the doors was permanently being held to ground by something. Found it was the little sensor / switch attached to the door lock barrel had fallen off and I could not see how to reattach it properly - so I just disconnected it. I now have central lock back again via drivers side doors switch and alarm fob. The only thing that doesn't trigger the central locking now is the passenger side door physical key. If you are willing to do the same, you'd lose physical key based central locking from the drivers side door, but electrical based lock and unlock should still work - assuming you have correctly diagnosed the broken part of course!
