Central Locking

[SuperJDM.]

Alright guys somethings wrong with my Central locking when i first got the car it was working fine but then it went funny on me. First when you press unlock it makes a "doot doot" sound then it makes a soft click then a loud click thats when i know the doors unlocked.

Now when i press unlock it goes "doot doot" and makes a soft click and the door wont open :(. So now i have to go "doot doot" and unlock it by hand LOL or else the alarm goes ape. If i turn the car on and leave it there or go for a little drive and come back it works fine. "doot doot" "soft click loud click".

Although i think the locking works all the time. Anyone know what the problem is?

have you tried openin the door up and look inside? there might b something in the way.. hence why after driving.. that part might loosen up and works.. but wen stationary it gets block again.. give that a try? :P

open ur door trim and check the central locking mechanism, often times it becomes loose, you just need to tighten the adjust it to work.
good luck!

Could be the locking mechanism getting a bit stiff, due to lack of lubrication – pull the door trim off and check it out.

I had this happen to me. I popped the door trim off, and sprayed WD40 into behind lock on the door. When you pull the door trim off you'll see the open/close switch that moves, follow the two metal pieces that come off off it then spray the WD40 into that. Then open/close the door a bunch of times (to remove the dirt) spray it again and it'll be fine for another couple years.
