15 Plate Puma stuck in a car park!
Hello All,

My 15 Puma has finally let me down in a car park, not bad after 6 years of ownership.

The centre locking on the rear left hand side seems to be suck on, popping the 20amp fuse on F9.

After a little wire wiggling the fuse doesn’t pop straight away, but..

Once I replace the fuse the siren kicks in, still unable to lock or unlock the doors.

After disconnecting the Negative on the battery I am running out of ideas.

Has anyone got a wiring diagram for the central locking system?

I think the problem might be in the B post but no confirmed yet.

Any other tips ?

Just a quick update-

Disconnected / reconnect the Negative the fault still remains.

As soon as F9 is re set the Alarm goes off.

No faults on the ID Tool.

Any resets available?

This is for earlier 2.4 puma but can’t think why the wiring would have changed for the 2015 2.2.

You should be able to disconnect the Connector in the B post from the rear Nearside door to isolate the main wiring from the likely short in the wiring to that door.

See pics in the link.

That should get you home and give time to rectify the problem

Did isolating the wiring to the door fix the problem ? It is a very common problem with the 110 with a fair number of posts on here about it.

Yeah, hooked it up this morning all working perfectly. I will get a meter out later and wiggle the B post wiring to confirm the fault.
More to follow.

I've got a similar problem with F9, each time I plug a fuse back or try to start the vehicle the alarm sounds and the immobiliser is active, any ideas how to reset the alarm? I've disconnected the two rear door cables at the B pillar which likely caused the fuse to blow. Keith

it could be wiring to one of the front doors or the back door that is causing the issue. The post I linked to earlier will help with identifying the issue , or a search on door wiring or central locking.

Once the fuse is reset can you unlock with the key fob whilst the alarm is going off?

Evening

Thanks for the notes, I've disconnected both rear door looms and that's sorted the fuse issue. When it's a bit warmer I'll try and work out which one is the issue

In terms of alarm the fix turned out to be holding the driver door position switch with my thumb while replacing the fuse. This let me then use the fob to unlock and disarm the alarm. Keith
