big_chris1981 0 Posted August 4, 2006 searched but couldnt find...i could just be stoopid. if i lock the car from the drivers door, the CL works, from the other side it doesnt and from the alarm remote it doesnt. so the central locking isnt locking the drivers door. its been suggested i might have a kink in a pipe somewhere.... anyone else had this problem? anyone suggest first place to look as far as troubleshooting goes? cheers chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vwdeviant 0 Posted August 5, 2006 Hey Chris, my issues started out similar (but the passenger side was intermittant). I'd suggest everything that Henny and the others helped me with. CL pump in drivers rear 1/4 under carpet, diconnect main car pip and blow, if you can there's a leak. Then try door ends, remove cards and have a feel about (my divers pipe wasn't seated, bit of fiddling and robert was a reletive!). If not then two areas under the dash. Have a look at my thred. http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?t=45144 If not Pneumatics then electrics.... Best O' Luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M15 VW 0 Posted August 5, 2006 Its either a kink or a leak or the actuator is not moving freely. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

big_chris1981 0 Posted August 7, 2006 well that was easy to fix. turned out the door actuator was attatched to.....nothing reattached, everythings working. also the side impact bar was loose in the bottom of the door with the bolts sellotaped to it....

swindon-corrado 0 Posted October 23, 2006 Me as well... These cars keep us entertained !! But do my head in also. Mine has only just occurred.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 24v 0 Posted October 23, 2006 No mate, but on reading this again mine isnt exactly the same. My problem is that I cant lock the central locking by pressing the nob down inside the car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andyVR6 0 Posted October 23, 2006 i had that problem. think it was something that was done when the vw/scorpion alarm was fitted. spent a whole weekend trying stuff but failed. i ended up wiring in a switch inside to control them. mine doesn;t lock with the key either.
