Whazza22 Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Hi all, Recently discovered that the passenger door doesn't unlock with the central locking anymore. It used to be fine. I'm wondering whether this has occurred since the battery was upgraded. Maybe lost memory? Is there a way to get it to unlock again, rather annoying for the other half lol Thanks Quote
GMballistic Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Are you sure it's not just the anti-hijacking feature? When you press the unlock button once it will unlock the boot & drivers door ~ press it again and it will unlock the passengers side for you. Quote
WhackyWill Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 To turn off that feature hold down the Lock and Unlock buttons for about 5 seconds and point the remote at the front of the windscreen then you can just use the lock button and unlock button by pressing once. Quote
Whazza22 Posted February 17, 2014 Author Posted February 17, 2014 Thanks for the replies. I have a sterling alarm fitted so there is only one button used. Press it once and it unlocks, press it again and it locks. I tried the method of pressing twice and it just locks again lol It has always worked in the past. Will try the 5 second method. 1 Quote

Is yours a UK Supplied or JDM, sounds like a JDM with an aftermarket alarm. Quote
Jixaman Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Worst case you have the same problem as me which is an easy fix, the spring anchor for the door handle return breaks stopping the opener from popping back up and when you lock the car it jams, took me ages to figure out but as said it is an easy fix once your there... Hope its something else but if its this give me a shout... Cheers... 1 Quote
Whazza22 Posted February 17, 2014 Author Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) It's a JDM with aftermarket alarm fitted. Will try the spring anchor as suggested by Jixaman 👠Cheers for info Edited February 17, 2014 by Whazza22 Quote

buckmoy Posted February 16, 2021 Posted February 16, 2021 Did you ever get this sorted? My passenger door won't unlock. The lock knob on the internal door handle (number 10 in attached diagram) isn't going to the totally unlocked position when I press the unlock button on the key fob (twice), or try and push it manually. Door won't open... MOT failure. I guess I may have to prise the interior panel off but is there an easier fix? Quote
