Central Locking Problem - bigtone0777 - 20-08-2013
Hi, I've had a quick look at the guides and done a search but haven't found any info on this yet.
My central locking stopped working on the drivers door earlier today. As the drivers door is opened and closed approx 50 times per night I thought maybe the plug onto the motor could have moved and had a bad connection. I stripped off the door card and checked the plug which seemed fine and the central locking started working again however, a few hours later it stopped again. I wiggled the wiring between the door pillar and the door and bingo it started working again, then stopped, another wiggle and worked again so I'm guessing it could be a broken wire in the harness. I have unplugged it check there is no corrosion and all looks nice and clean. Is it common for the wiring to break here? I guess it could be. I'm thinking if this is the issue the best thing to do is to work out which colours are the central locking and cut out a legnth and resolder a new piece in or is there a better way?
Thanks
Tony
Edit
After more poking about the forum it seems that the loom is the prime suspect so when I manage to get a day off, some wire and some heat shrink all at the same time I will chop and solder and see what happens :-)
