Guest Blackbess Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 This is about my Peugeot, but someone may have an idea whats going on. My central locking won't stay locked. As soon as you lock it, it pops open again. We've checked the doors, opened and shut them all, but nothing. Any ideas or suggestions?? Its a real pain!

Guest lutonman12 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 the lock mechanism might be hitting somethin inside the door (maybe lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Blackbess Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Thats what I thought but we checked the doors and found nothing. Other half thought it had done this before and it was something simple but he can't remember what and I can't remember it happening at all!!

Guest markeyboy Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 washed it recently? the central locking module could be full of water (happened on our old galaxy) was like somthing out of mary popins lmfao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Max Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 i have the same thing on my xr3i. first you need to find what lock it is. unplug one lock, ie boot, then try to lock it again. if it still wont work plug that back in and uplug another. keep doing this untill it locks, then you know which lock has the issue. from there you can try to solve it, maybe its jamming or the motor is getting old and knackered. hope this helps (even though i have not given a real solution to the issue lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Blackbess Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Hi guys, thanks for the suggestions. No it hasn't been just washed, sadly its not seen a wash for a long time! LOL We tried with the doors but can't work out which one it is, it just didn't work when we tried each one. Looks like a garage job I think, Thanks Trace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gavbriggs Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 if it's remote locking, try changing battery as wifes peugeot does this! it gets right on my wick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Blackbess Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I don't think its thast gav as the battery has been gone in the remote for over a year and I never got it replaced. But thanks for the suggestion! Trace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guynkate Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I had a 306 some years back that did the same thing !! Just trying to remeber the fault, I know the door locking pins would sometimes get stuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Blackbess Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Still not got it fixed. Other half has looked it up on the internet, tried the things on there. Would seem like its a big wiring job now so I want the doors de-central locked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sjc Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 have you had any wires off or done any work in any of the doors....someone on here had that problem a while ago and the only way I could think could happen is if something happened to the lock/unlock wires crossed over or shorted out in one of the doors (similar to if there full of water as markey says) if you have the haynes for it send us a picture of the wiring diagram and i will see if i can make any sense out of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ste Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 check the wires where they pass through the body especially, as the 12v feed is earthing out which is causing this i feel. so check the insulation of the wiring for cracks or splits and you will find the culprit.
