Guest scas Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 hi all, i,m new to the forum and this is my first post-i just bought a mk1 xantia and it has a few problems, the most concerning is i cant lock it. both keys are presumably worn so most of the time they spin uselessly in the door locks ,but both work the ignition. the one button blipper key doesnt work the central locking so i put in new batteries, no luck. next i took out the receiver thing in front of the sunroof. there are 5 wires going to this and with the ignition off there is no power going to it. i checked fuses-no luck, so i just ran a live feed from the battery to the correct wire in the receiver( haynes manual) and hew presto the blipper worked. my problem is the blipper will only lock the car, when i press it again all that happens is a click from the door locks but it wont unlock. if i lock it with a door open it locks then unlocks as its supposed. any ideas?
