Changed the door solenoid on drivers door and now the car will not lock, everything is connected but door pin will not go down and when using the key in the lock that's not locking the door either, where have I went wrong?

Problem solved, key not working on Central locking though, but at least it locks..

Hi Mike, what was it?  Key needed the old resync trick?

WHen did the key last work, or even get tried in the lock?  could it just be stiff from lack of ues and need a bit of lubing up?

[MikeDundee]

Not sure what it was probably me , resync has not worked, will try changing the battery in the fob and see if that's what it is, or could possibly be the engine battery?, to be fair must or should have needed resync when changed the battery several weeks ago but did'nt, hence changing the solenoid, but no difference.

We'll done the resync and all working fine now, so did not need a new solenoid, so have a spare one now, and what was the problem??, ME , had the battery in the wrong way round in the key
