Faulty door module..

[Ant1981]

Has anybody here sucessfully repaired their module with a resolder?

good question as my gf car is dodgey....

when you press lock all dors lock but doesnt pip/flash, when you hit lock again 2 more times it will pip/flash and hit lock again and half the doors open!!! STRANGEE!!!

unlocking it is fine!!

I might try it. I'm a dab hand with a soldering iron. But if it doesn't fix it, then I'll have a door apart and no replacement module. Could either drive with a bare door or motorbike it for a day or two.

replaced my door module last week,got it from euro car parts,works just fine but make sure the cable that hooks on the handle is the correct length.i made this mistake,got it all bolted up and when i pulled the handle the door did not want to open.so i took out the blank and swapped the new cable for the old one, what a nightmare this was as i didnt look forward to strip the door again.

also for us peeps with blanks if you wanna reprogram your fob just take out the blank and use a flat screwdriver as your "key" .if you look into the whole where the blank is taken from you can see a recess- round white plastic cap in the door module where the key lock turns left or right.just insert the flat screwdriver to turn for locking or unlocking.still follow the normal process via one key in ignition and so on.
remember to push the lock and unlock on your second fob as you turn the screwdriver "key"

It is the correct length, but alot of people forget to click for forks into the handle. Otherwise it won't open and it appears too long when it's just right.

yo Ant1981,how are you mate?the one i got was way to long,before i swapped them i had the old and new one side by side,just to make sure i didnt do anything wrong,the new one was about an inch longer compared to the old one.even when i set the new one to the max on the handle it still was to long,
maybe i got a dud-one in a million.

sorry to dig up an old thread , but yes I fixed both of mine today at £0 cost , just had to clean up and resolder.

I am currently experiencing an issue on my drivers side tho , will lock with fob , but wont unlock with fob , will with key ?

I half opened up my rear module and all manner of cogs and springs tried to make an escape...
