matelot 0 Posted December 26, 2007 Fellas, hopefully someone can help me with this one. Noticed yesterday that the 'screw in' holder for the parcel shelf strap (offside) was loose. No problem, 10 second job, tightened it back up now my remote locking's screwed! Central locking still works when you use the key but totally refuses to answer the remote, consequently my car is now parked up locked but not alarmed. :? Is there wiring for the alarm system running inside the tailgate to the right side of the back window that I may have inadvertently cut with end of the screw? Hacked off now cos I've only just paid out to have new thermostat fitted two days ago! Andy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted December 27, 2007 Maybe just a coincidence but the screw maybe shorting something... try taking it out again? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matelot 0 Posted January 8, 2008 Sorry for the delay in replying, computer went on the fritz! Tried taking the screw out again but I obviously screwed it in too enthusiastically, but thanks for the suggestion. I'm no electrician so it looks like another fork out some cash job! :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted January 9, 2008 i fecked up my locking the other day, was sat on drive couldn't start car, alarm was going off, remote fob was lighting up when i pressed it but had no effect on car. turns out i'd knocked a sliding button on the fob so it was resting halfway between two settings and not doing anything :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
