Central Locking

[bugger]

HI all.

My remote controls the alarm and the central locking of the car.

it does switch on and off the alarm without any difficulty when I press on the button. However, I cannot get the lock to unlock or lock.

in the past, it works as times, but recently, it doesn't work.

I can hear the sound inside the door trying to lock or unlock but it just doesn't work.

Is it the cause from the battery of the remote? or the solonoid inside the driver side door is faulty?

does anyone knows the problem?

Cheers.

Hi mate,

I had the same problem, was the door actuator. Chris Rogers on here was very useful!

Cheers!

door actuator? what part is that? and how to get it done?

sounds like the actuator.( thing that works the lock mech on the drivers side.) if you are mechanical tear the door down and check that the rod is still attached or that is hasnt moved.

if not take it to a shop and pay them for it. should be $100 by the time all is done.

where do you think is a cheap place to do it? LOL.

so your saying that if its shifted slightly it may stop being able to move the system enough to unlock the door?

same thingy happened to my R33,

open up the drivers side door, check all the rods, there should be a 2 rods going into the actuator, then follow the rods until they seperate, should be this little screw thing holding both of them together, push the to rods hard together and tighten the screw, then try your alarm or central locking, after that it should work, thats what happened to mine

could be same situation as yours but just give it a try
