Do you have access to another Omega

Have you changed the battery in the fob?

Yes older estate Omega for scraps, why? i have tried with both fobs and they have quite new batteries and I dont think the fobs are the problem because the central locking doesnt work with the key in door lock or when sitting in car and pressing drivers lock pin down.

Ok, try swapping the central locking ecu, then from inside the car with the doors shut, try the drivers door lock button. If this works then it confirms the ecu is faulty. I don't know if the remotes will work with a different ecu, but it would mean that you could then at least lock/unlock the car with the key.

This won't affect the immobiliser as that is an engine ecu circuit. If it does work, then it might be as simple as swapping the remote fobs with ones from the spare car

Yes I thought of that too, shame I cant use the fobs since they arent integrated to key and have only 2 buttons, but I'll try that another ecu and see what happens!

Central locking came back alive with the other ecu! It works with key in door lock and from pin and the donaters fob. Interior light works too. I cant access the boot because cl ecu was from older estate so now I have to get new ecu. Can I program my old key fobs to the new ecu?

ps. I quess the motor I changed to drivers door is broken because sometimes when I lock the car it unlocks it immediatly....

Result

So just a new ecu and a new/fixed drivers door solenoid needed... should be able to reprogram the remotes. Do you have the car pass? Best left to main dealer, don't use 'my naff code reader' to programme it

[joninono]

All problem solved, got CL ecu from breakers with same part number, installed it and paired my keys to it with my "My Naff Code Reader".

Job well done!
