Central locking.......i'm trapped!
« on: 15 February 2008, 21:50 »
Hey guys, had my immobiliser disconnected the other day as a foreigner by a friend of a friend (i know...), now the central locking is all screwed up....

When i unlock the car, only the drivers door unlocks ( no, not even the fuel flap... :angry:) and then it locks itself again straight away...to get out I have to wind down the window and unlock the door with the key from the outside

The lad can't get over till next week, but I need to use the car, is there any way of disconnecting the central locking, I cant see a fuse for it..... :sad:

If you can get into the boot you could unplug all the power cables to the central locking pump,  then u can use the key to manualy lock and unlock it.
10 golfs and counting! 

Engine cranes = the ultimate tool to test the tensile strength of Everything you didn't disconnect!

Ah genius! I can get in through the rear seats, I had to earlier to pull back the pin for the fuel flap, just so I could put juice in it.... :rolleyes:

Wireless internet. The fuse for central locking, what else does it control?
