Title: Lock Issues
Post by: oceansoul on 01 March 2010, 19:23:21

I had a lil issue getting into my car the other day. Did the same thing today. I pressed the button to unlock the car (had been deadlocked), all the pins came up, i open the OSR door, put me bag in, went to open OSF door but the door wouldnt open. The handle lifted up but nothing happened. I went in via the NSF door and pulled the interior door handle which didnt open the door either. It was as if the door was still locked. Even tho the pin was up. I locked and unlocked the car with the remote 3 or 4 times then managed to open the door. Its done this twice now. :(

It's sometimes possible to help it along as you lock & unlock the rest of the doors. Catch it before it locks you out completely ....... he says with exactly the same problem on my driver's door, I've even got the 'new' motor to change it  ::)

door card is easy to remove unless u have manual windows in the back and can be a pain the handle is held on with a clip witch is not easy to get to
