Guest MalcS Posted March 10, 2003 Report Posted March 10, 2003 Can anyone help please/I have a KA3 and the central locking works but immediately unlocks again.The same happens when I lock them with the key. ;)
Guest Andy Posted March 23, 2003 Report Posted March 23, 2003 Sounds like one of the locking motors has gone tits up,unplug each one then lock the vehicle,usually its the drivers door that buggers up. :(
Guest sawyet Posted December 3, 2003 Report Posted December 3, 2003 Hi there, Indeed as FREDT says it is due to corrosion of the pins in the plug and socket of the door loom. Best to try what he says frist but if that doesn't work try the following, which did work for me...... I too have had the problem with locks recycling. This resulted in me not being able to lock the car hence a temptation to those little pikies who want to take it for a joy ride. If this happens to you, simply detach one of the door wiring looms (there's a connector where the door joins the body of the car). This alas cuts off the power to one door so no electric windows, but does allow the locks to be individually locked using the key. Safe for now.... To fix the problem, indeed you will need a new wiring loom as it seems the connector between door and car body corrodes. I managed to trace the problem to one wiring loom which cost
