Galaxy Locking

[sadi_93]

i have an Galaxy S Reg 2.3 Ghia. i am having problems with my central locking. i do not have a central locking remote so i have been using my key to lock and unlock the car, this has been fine until recently.

 

when i put the key in the lock and unlock it only that door opens, so if i put the key in the driver doors and unlock it only opens that door and same with the passenger door. my biggest problem is that the boot is always open as the key can not lock it.

 

PLEASE PLEASE HELP.........

Another check on early mk1 Gal's is the central locking module is under the passenger seat. This fills with water if you have a leak and kills the module. Pull the seat and the hidy cover and have a look to see if the module and/or the area around it is wet.
