this morning went t lock my car and only drivers door locks.
2 of the keys i have (1 for the door, 1 for the ignition) neither of them lock the boot so the boot is always unlocked, whats the most common fault for central locking?
the haynes manual ins't very good tbh
i dont want to go out and by a new bi-pressure pump( whats runs the central locking ) and find out it wasnt that what were broken
goin t scarborough tomorow too so need t get it working.
any ideas?

Re: central locking suddenly gone
have you opened the unit up and checked for water damage. slighest bit of condensation can get in the plug and end up burning the pump out. check the cicuit board and plug for water damage then electrally test it.
Re: central locking suddenly gone
am gonna go double check, so the pump might have blown ?
how much they cost new/2nd hand?
