Title: My central locking just stopped working??!!
Post by: snifferdog on 27 May 2013, 09:30

Just been down McDonalds and when I got home and tried to lock the car nothing happened?!

Its been working fine until now. Any ideas?

Ive tried both keys and neither are working.

Cheers.

I had this problem when i had a MK3. Found that when it rained heavily some water got in through the rear light housing and got the central locking pump wet, stopping it from working. Took it out and shoved it in the airing cupboard to dry out and it was fine.

I'm not sure what the MK4 is like with regards to the central locking pump, but could be a fault with that.

Cheers for that, Ive sorted it though, it was a fuse  :grin:

I unscrewed the undertray by the steering wheel whilst looking for the fusebox though  :embarrassed: :laugh: :grin:
