ah! cheers mate that makes more sense now thanks. I will have another look tomorrow! ive been doing a bit of research and im thinking the problem might lie with the micro switches in the door lock?
Ill give it all a check tomorrow and let you know how i get on.

Thanks for that mate! haha
Im still going to give it a bash seening as i have nothing to lose (apart from a few hours). Its got to be worth a try as i have no central locking at all!!

Thanks Graham
