Hi, I ve got an issue where the key fob is operating with the lights flashing but the door actuators arent unlocking. I have also tried the manual key and that isnt operating the locks either. Boot release is also out of action.
I ve tried replacing the key fob battery and this has made no difference apart from the fob working from a distance away from the car so assuming a stronger signal. So basically locked out if the car with no option to get in to connect a code reader or similar.
Anyone experienced anything similar or got any suggestions on how to open the car manually. So that I can get a code reader hooked up. Thanks

Is it definitely just the door locks?

I had this issue, lights flash but no actual locking when my ESU went but I also had a bunch of other issues:

First aspect I would check are the fuses; fuse 21 is a 25A fuse for the Door Locks (D LOCK)

Hi Ian, thanks for the reply. No issues at all before this so strange. I ve bought an access kit tool from Amazon and am going to open the lock through the window, seen a video on utube, and then once in I can check it all over. Thanks again.

Hi, bought an Amazon car access kit which is basically a few rods that screw together and some infalatable bags to ease a window gap. Poor quality with the threads loose so had to tape up and not a great deal of strength in the bags. Managed to unclick the locking using the rod through window gap so now all good. Once opened and started now all seems ok and opening and closing as normal. I ve oiled all the mechanisms just in case. Thanks
