98 1.8TD central locking problem - vuk
Hi there!

Got a problem with the drivers side door lock. If I lock using the remote it will not lock or unlock, all other 3 doors will lock then unlock 1 sec after they lock, ie they will not stay locked.

The only way I can lock it is by pushing the latch or using the key so the drivers side lock is locked mechanicaly using the key.

It seems there is an electrical fault, the central locking motor does not respond.

Checked the plugs, very clean.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Pop the door card off and test the two locking wires in the motor plug go live both ways when the other doors lock.

Probably a lock mechanism - very cheap and 5 mins to fit.
