Remote locking problem
« on: May 05, 2015, 06:45:32 pm »
Evening,

As of yesterday, the driver's side door has started to decide it doesn't want to unlock sometimes; resulting in me having to use the key. It sounds as if it unlocks, but nope. It's a temperamental fault, doesn't do it every time but it is becoming annoying.

Any one else had this, or any idea what can be done to fix it?

Cheers!

It's not as bad as it looks but you can get issues with the door wiring - this is worth a read just in case.
