I ended up Putting the ESI Module back in Then locking the car using the key fob then unlocking drivers using the emergency key opening rear drivers door then shutting drivers door reaching in locking drivers door by pushing the button down then the same on the back door,i forgot i took the ESI out before i locked Drivers door,ESI now sent off for repair,its no good following the YouTube videos it didn't work so i done what i should have done first and got the Owners Manual out
