Title: indicators arent flashing when i lock car.
Post by: Pete H on 12 January 2009, 20:00: Anybody have a clue what this means?

Sure they flash when i unlock it but not when i lock, tried all the doors and they are shut properly.

any helps would great.

Try this.. double click the fob to open all the doors, then get in and start the car. Now try to lock all the doors with the button on the fingerplate.. if one of your lock pins pops back up, that's your culprit

Post by: MrTurner on 12 January 2009, 20:48: I take it this flashing thing will be the same if the boot lock is not working off the fob? Mine rarely flashes on locking..
