WAHOOOOOOOO

Thanks everybody for your help, I have now fixed the problem!!!

I decided to a bit of fiddling around and I pulled out the stereo and noticed the switched live wire was bare so all I did was put a little bit of electrical tape on it and low and behold my Remote Central Locking works perfectly and my lovely little LED is blinking away contently!!!!!
I assume that it was making contact with something that it didn't like.

Thanks Again

Dan. :smiley: :grin: :wink:
