Hi Guys

Went out this morning for a nice sunday am drive and the chimp (96 4L) would not open - alarm was being turned off by the fob but the door was not being opened - not even a sound of the central locking doing its stuff..

Anyone got any ideas whether this is a knackered central locking etc..

please help..

cheers

I just had the reverse of this (i.e. wouldn't lock), turned out to be a combination of a) knackered solenoid b) circuit problem between Foxguard and door mechanism.

new solenoids and some sort of bypass circuit have sorted it out.

I'd start with the solenoids..........
