ok this is not new but have seen as trivial up till now when i press unlock only does drivers door no matter how many times button is pressed same with locking all other doors have to be done manually with pushing button down!!
is this an easy fix probably not as its me anyone know?
or this has happened too?:tea:
 
Nope. People have either had it working, or not. Or every door BUT drivers door working, and it's usually down to the mechanism in the door.
 
leave it till the major stuff is sorted, you will have to strip the drivers mechanism down and then the others. just check there is a multiplug and a single wire, unplug em then plug em back in!
 
i got it 8 mile to lpg garage and back gav that was pretty impressive lol drove ok there and back i think just the suspension thing now its top of the list now!
 
I will warn you now, that to remove the locking mechanism is by no means straight forward at all, in fact its a real fiddly pain in the ass.

However, once you have done one, you do learn from it.

If you are having any problems with your central locking, the first thing you should do is change the batteries on your key fobs, and the buttons too if they are worn.

Also make sure your car battery is in very good order, I cannot stress enough how strange things happen on these cars when low volts are present.

My central locking was popping up and down all the time on it's own while driving and would not work correctly, new Duracell batteries in the fobs fixed it.

Always check the easiest and cheapest options before being certain that a big job is required.

its not a big thing and is no hardship to do manually just thought id ask ill try and getting it working later lol
 
Looking at the wiriing diagrams fuse 14 in the BECM supplies power to the rear door actuators. Could be a start. I'd check the batteries in the key fob first. Wierd stuff this RF.
