ok, heres my problem.
ever sence ive had my car, the factory central locking has only been half working. Both front doors will lock all the other doors but both of the doors wont unlock the other doors. if put the key and turn 2 unlock in the driver side or the passenger side, it only unlocks that door its self. when i try and unlock the car from either door i can here a relay clicking from under the hood so i know a signal is beeing sent from the locking mecanisium 2 the relay.
ive also tryed 2 replace the central locking control unit but that didnt help either.

n e 1 here had that same problem before?? n e ideas on what i could look for?? i need 2 get it sorted out soon cos ive got an alarm on the way and i want the clock output 2 work.

dood see a specilist. If you go to the right people it shouldn't be too expensive plus they will look at the mirrors and cruise control for you for the 1 price. Worth it if you want it to work properly.

nah, i want 2 give it a go my self + my cruise & mirrors work fine so that would be a waist of money.

The only other thing i can think of is that it could just be a relay. Check that all fueses are alright and that all light bulbs in/on the car are fine, and check for moisture around the electrics. Other wise i haven't 2 s*#ts of a clue.

try either at the c/l box or at the drivers motor, putting 12v in to the up wire and see if it unlocks....if it doesnt it could be the motor if u can hear the relay
I really cant think of what else it could be

I say indacator bulbs because have you ever had 1 blown and the other lights go spastic and really fast of stuff them all together?. To save on wiring and cost alot of the wires will meet somewhere then go to power. I once replaced a tail light and my stereo started working again. go figure ?

i herd that its not uncommon for the motors or solinoids or something to die in cars like this
