car locks me in
« on: 02 December 2009, 14:21 »
Intermittantly, if i unlock the car, get in, shut the door, and the car locks itself.
ive noticed this also plays up with courtest foot lights on the driver door only, also the headlight warning tone doesnt come on if lights are left on.
Sometimes it all starts working again, but its like the car doesnt realise its door has been opened, hence it locks itself.
Is there a microswitch or something in the driver door, sometimes a slight bang would fix it and make it all work again or it all flickers.

Any ideas?
