c5 locking problems
Hi all. Sorry if this has already been answered somewhere before. My 2003 citroen c5 vtr has been playing up with the locking system over the past few weeks. When I unlock the car with the keyfob sometimes the drivers door doesnt unlock which is now nearly all the time or sometimes the passenger door but ive lived with it as I just use the key in the door. My now major concern is last night I had a full service as im driving to france next week now every time I unlock the car or turn the ignition on the boot pops open? Im desperately hoping its not going to end up being another bsi fault as I had to get shot of my c5 estate a few months ago because the bsi unit went and bought this one as a replacement. ..any guidance would be great please as I leave for france in a week and dont really want everything popping open willy nilly on a 500 mile drive....thanks...Tim

Re: c5 locking problems
You might want to try a BSI reset before getting more deeply into anything. The procedure would be the same as for battery replacement I think. (see supersticky thread).
C5's are famed for having weird electrical problems due to a failing battery.
