Xsara - Rear Door Won't Open

Unread post by chigurhm »

Hi,

I have just fitted a drivers door locking mechanism and now have the central locking working when the ignition is on.

The problem I have is the rear near-side door is locked and will not open, even though the button is showing unlocked, I guess it is deadlocked. All the doors had this during my testing but started to work again.

Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Thanks

You could try shocking it by trying to lock the car with one door deliberately left open, This sometimes works.
