Central locking stopped working
 
Hi

Central locking no longer activates buttons on doors and boot, so key-entry only.

I still get a whirring noise from the unit in the boot for about 5 seconds each time I lock or unlock a door, and when keyfob buttons pressed.

Any ideas welcom.

The system is air powered via a pump and you may get some insight from this thread about replacing the pump itself, but first of all you need to check and make sure that the air pipework from the pump hasn't just come off

Thanks for pointers, are there any technical diagrams on this site to help me get to it?

It's buried away with the alarm horn on the left side of the boot behind the side trim in front of the rack with the CD changer etc.
You need to get the side panel off and it's also wrapped in foam padding but the pipes should be obvious.
