Title: Electric locks playing up...
Post by: TaylorGTi on July 25, 2015, 10:09:40 am

so my car last month started randomly unlocking and locking while driving about.. Well now my passenger door doesn't open on demand! I can still here the mechanism work but even when inside the car and trying to open it won't open... I have to turn car on off, unlock lock loads of times and it'll randomly open...

I'm thinking electrical fault somewhere but have no idea without a scan!

Any advice is greatly welcomed  :happy2:

Probably a broken wire in the door loom where it crosses the door shut.
Either that or a faulty door module.
Pull the sheath back off the loom and check for broken wires.
