C Locking issue

[dantheram]

Can anyone suggest why my central locking pump is running on for a lot longer than previously and is now struggling to push up the door pins.

symptoms -

pump running on
pins struggling to raise

i'm pretty sure is a leak and not the pump. how do i find the hole in the system without ripping the car apart

Thanks,

Dan

Thats a leak for sure

Check the fuel cap for starters - it often leaks there

Youll have to basically listen for hissing air.

It's burnt out my pump now
Think it's near the fuel cap checked boot and nearside door an there is no hissing. Thinks masked by the pump at the fuel cap

Spot on, thanks.

The plastic tubing around the long pin had split - all fixed
