I have a drivers door lock gone bad, the usual bouncing lock problem, took the lock out today and found a broken spring inside it, so I ordered a new one coming in 2 days, the dealer tells me it will need programing before it will work, now I fell for this the last time one failed and let them fit it but will it really not work until they have worked their magic?

It plug and play as far as I know,,I have sent out the info loads of times,,,they were probably getting confused with getting a puncture where the wheel has to be re set on STAR

Thanks guys, as I thought, I have just replaced a front interior light unit with a second hand one, the dealer wanted £200 inc "reprograming"

Sorted, it only unlocked at first but then started to lock as well after it had had a think about it, one other thing worth noting the key lock and sensor have to be removed before you can get the unit out, to do this there is a hidden screw behind the door seal through a hole.

hi steve, when you put them in and try them straight away and they only lock you scratch your head. but then you refit the latch trim on the door, which contacts the door pin switch, and hey presto. :lol: had me scratching my head first time.

Hi,

Just discovered that it will unlock (both new and old) but not lock, so if I lock the car, all other doors will lock, but not the drivers door, but if I press the button down, then the door is locked and will unlock along with the others when I press the unlock button - wierd eh??

Ok, so I reassembled everything, mounted the door card, cleaned all surfaces, and now it works, everytime.....
