My central locking wouldn't open my car. I tried the button with no luck. I mamaged to open the passenger door with the key. But all the rest of my doors are still locked. Any ideas how to rectify this. I did buy new sol today but nothing. Please help

[TheBoy]

have you tried to resync fob?

Also, ow did you unlock passenger side with key

[fcmbobby]

How do i set up the fob again mate? I ment the drivers mate

[henryd]

switch on ignition and while switched on press the lock button on the remote,if you hear the doors lock then it is re-synched

[fcmbobby]

I shall give that a go

[fcmbobby]

Guys no luck. any other ideas

[henryd]

is the red light on the remote lighting up when you press the button,if not try new batteries first

[fcmbobby]

There has never been a light on my key fob. Would it be the plastic between the lock and unlock buttons

[fcmbobby]

would there be any other possible problem?

[fcmbobby]

Sorted. Cheers guys

[robson]

How did you sort it? useful for others in future with same problem

[fcmbobby]

it was a solenoid problem, so did a replacement and re set up the key fob. but remember to check the fuse as the first port of call

[robson]

Iassume that there is one fuse for the central locking system not one on each door

Hi really interested in this problem,much the same as I have had for the last few weeks.
I,ve had no joy whatsoever at solving it,so where is this solenoid, and any other ideas that would be helpful would be great.
Someone else on a different thread mentioned that he presses the keyfob a light blinks on the dash,which one is that?.

I have a similar problem, battery has gone flat but key will not open any door probably due to deadlocks being engaged. Any ideas on how I can get into car?

Yeah! Sorted. I opened the boot (Thank goodness you still can while the other doors are deadlocked) and connected a spare battery to the boot light +wire. Enough electrics to open car with remote, thought I would put this up in case others have a similar problem.
