Central Locking Iced Up
On several mornings of late the central locking won't operate correctly - it goes into a demented cycle of unlocking and re locking itself, so I can't get in the drivers door, I have to clamber in through one of the rear doors. To get out, I have to hold up the door lifter locker thing against it's will as it refuses to stay in the unlocked position and then pull the door handle. Evil or Very Mad

If it is under warranty the dealer will sort it. The door card may need trimming and the length of the actuator arm adjusting.

It happen to ours in Feb and that is what dealer did. No problems since.

Many thanks for the feedback Brendan, only 12 months old so should be no issue for warranty, I'll give the boys a call.
Cheers Thumbs Up
