well you search online for the cause of the code, rhyso gave me this website -
http://wiki.ross-tech.com/index.php/Main_Page
im still a lil lost after looking up the codes as they are basically "check wiring" for most of them

i think i need to take the codes to the dealership

ones i have that are to do with central locking are:-

01038
00928 <this one is probably the cause
