remote central locking problem
i have a dispatch van on a 53 plate 2004, when i bought the van the remote central locking worked ok, but it has now stopped working. I have replaced the battery and tried the learning set up as descibed in the manual, but it does not work. as it does not have any leds on it, its had to know if its transmitting.Does anyone have any ideas.

You don't say how old the van is.
If it's an infra-red remote, you can check if it's transmitting by looking at the main LED, not the little red tell-tale, with a digital camera of any sort.
Digital cameras can 'see' IR so infra-red remotes are visible on their screens.
If it is IR and it's not transmitting, check the 'legs' of the LED. I've documented the repair of my 'plipper' here.
