Hi all,
I've been backwards and fowards with front passenger door causing problems with the car not unlocking on keyfob.
(Car is a 5 door 1.0 GS 2001, right hand drive)
I have replaced the lock mechanism, and bought a new actuator.
- All doors lock, but then none will unlock.
- If I unplug passenger door actuator, the remaining 3 doors and boot lock and unlock OK
- If I remove the passenger door actuator from the lock mechanism and plug it in on its own, all doors lock and unlock ok (including the passenger actuator - can see plastic arms moving to lock and unlock position)
At a guess, the actuator isn't getting enogh power? The plastic arm to tell the actuator it is "locked" doesn't appear to be moving all the way over? So the car thinks it is always unlocked.
What could case this? Bad earth? Bad central locking module?
Where do I start looking?
Many thanks!!!
