Car Forum / Peugeot Cars / March 2005306 Central Locking
Central locking playing up on 1998 LX 306. Locking via any of the front doors causes the locks to lock and then straight away unlock all the doors, a bit of a security problem me thinks. Temporarily got round the problem by removing the relevant fuse (but this cuts power to the radio- not ideal) but at least I can manually lock all the doors. Can anyone shed any light on the most likely faults(so) causing this. Tried my local independent garage who suggested going to the local main dealer to run their diagnostic equipment at it but I don't relish paying main dealer prices. Thanks for any assistance.

This is what happens when the doors cannot be locked, for example because one of them is not shut properly. So maybe there is some reason why one of the doors is failing to lock, perhaps some obstruction or something that prevents cental locking, but can be overcome by force when locking it manaully.

But I suggest the usual thing, being "A" pillar looms. Well documented in the past. Do a search in Google. >>Central locking playing up on 1998 LX 306.

I've got this - but it's really really intermittent, and I can get round it by holding the key in the unlock position and opening the door, this then stops the central locking doing it's thing. Never happened to me yet whilst locking the doors though.

Grand cost of ?229.00 (ouch) - wonder if I was stitched up, but very glad to be able to lock the car again. The worrying thing is they reported that other wires in the loom were in a poor condition and may cause trouble in the future - maybe time to trade it in before it bites me. Nige |
