my central locking has just recently decided to only do half the job. ahhh
the only time it works proper is when i use the key in the lock

when the car attempts to lock itself with the alarm/keyless the passenger side locks fully but the driver side gets half way, and its almost like it hasn't got enough force to completely lock. and the same for it when unlocking.

if i push the inside locks manually they both lock quite nicely...
mm, could this just be cause my battery is low or could there be somthing wrong with my alarm or central locking?

cheers, alan

it should be the central locking black thing in the door. happened to me not long ago got it replaced for $50. but after saw him doing it, it quite easy to DIY it and auto barn stocks em aswell

just take your door apart and give it a good spray of WD40 onto the central locking mechanism, should fix the problem. its just alot of dust and grime build up and a quick spray should do it good
