#1: Central locking, doing my head in now. Author: rick-gti, Location: welshpool, mid walesPosted: Thu Mar 01, 2012 1:11 pm ---- I put up a thread a while back regarding the central locking on my gti 2000. When I press the big button on the fob the car locks then unlocks. I have taken both door mechs out and checked them and replaced a faulty boot mech. But it still wont lock, what else can I check? I have tried dissconecting each mech to see if that helps but no.
Really need to sort this as I cant go anywhere as the car wont lock.

but, i had a problem with my central locking, as it wouldnt always unlock when i pressed the button. so i bought a 2nd hand solenoid from another 206 but a different spec to mine, as i thought it would be the same. however, when i put it in the car would lock then unlock, like yours does.
so perhaps it's that?
dont really know what else it could be though. maybe a fuse?

Have to tried to see what lock isn't going down?

Have checked all fuses.
Where would I find the solenoids?
#5: Re: Central locking, doing my head in now. Author: tomd0801754, Location: MoscowPosted: Thu Mar 01, 2012 1:27 pm ---- The solenoid is part of the mechanism, the ones you have already removed. (three torx screws and then remove from between doorcard and door.)
Go to a scrapyard and replace BOTH, although I doubt they will be much new from Peugeot. It will likely be the passenger side though.
#6: Re: Central locking, doing my head in now. Author: rick-gti, Location: welshpool, mid walesPosted: Thu Mar 01, 2012 1:32 pm ---- I have narrowed it down to the passenger side but it looks to work ok. I will replace the passenger side. Scrappy want £15 for 1.

As long as they have the same connector then they will work.
Ricky - mine looked o work perfectly. However it didn't
How have you narrowed it down?

Before this the car would lock when I was driving, but only did this once or twice. Have swopped the drivers mech.
