Central Lockin Failed

[Guest KEN]

First noticed water in the footwell of passenger side, a few days latter the central locking packed up, I have removed the fuse to enable me to lock the car, otherwise all I get is a repeating sequence of automatic loor locking / unlocking.

 

The water I think results from blocked drains - should be easy to fix. Is it possible that the water has affected the CL system if so is this common and does anyone know how to fix it - or will letting it dry out work???

 

Thanks

the water could result in blocked drains OR leaking rear window washer pipe, before a certain date 97 i think the cl module was under the passenger seat - so yes it could be - need some car details to tell, put them in your sig...

Agreed after seeing the pictures a very poor design.

 

The car is an R reg, and yes always have wondered what the little black box was under the passenger seat.

 

If this is the cause of the Central lock failure will it need replacement or can it be fixed.

 

thanks
