FAO Jon: Central locking controller

Post by chizzy »

Not near a phone I can use at the mo! Is (N87552 DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR ZX 5 DOOR 21.50) the console mounted central locking controller or do I need a dealer?
Many thanks

No,
N87552 is the solenoid thing inside each door.
The roof mounted controller comes as a kit N97190 which consists of 2 new plips and the roof mounted controller. £89.00.

Thanks Jon
I was referring to the master relay/controller by the handbrake.

Part I think you're after is 6547 VG - CONTROL BOX.
Not the end of the world at £38.37+VAT from a dealer.

Nearly ninety quid for plippery- ouch. I built my own for less than £20. OK, so I needed to write a couple of chips which took a little time but I have radio instead of infra red and I haven't needed to disable a door switch to do so. I will make details available if there is any interest and will program the chips for the return postage. One for the hobbyists, though. The whole lot comes to about fifteen components and you only get one plip, cos the radio circuit is a transmitter and receiver pair. It does work very well, though.

GSF store lists this as XANTIA >98, if this correct because I thought the infra red roof mounted controller was pre 98..?

>98 means to 1998
98> means 98 onwards
So the site is correct, IR was up to 1998.

Thanks blueboy, that makes it clear, I was reading '>' as 'greater than'

Jon, do GSF sell plips/IR controllers for BXs? I have two and neither has the plips, so only central locking I have is via drivers' door. One is 1990 16V, other is a 1991 TZD.
thanks
