spanky Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 Hi i have a 56 plate c1 vibe and i need to replace both door locks and the boot lock , its a vibe so no central locking fitted and ignition is fine so im presuming ecu doesnt need replacing or does it? , any helpful suggestions for sourcing the lock barrels would be much appreciated. thanks Quote
paul.h Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 welcome to the forum. If it is just the lock barrels you are replacing then there is nothing needed with the ecu. From the parts diagrams it looks as if the barrels are easy to replace once the door cards are removed. Only a C clip holds the front door ones and 2 bolts hold the boot one. There are 2 different types of lock barrels depending on your car RPO number, the change occuring at RPO 12820. The RPO is on the door pillar sticker which also has the tyre pressures. To get replacement locks you could try a breakers for used ones but they may be worn and you may not get 2 keys, or you could use a Citroen dealer who can also supply a matched set to use the same key as your existing key but this costs more. A boot and the front locks with different keys are about £35 and £50 or to use your existing keys about £45 and £85. Quote
