2014 c3 central locking

Unread post by Colin Hawes »

Hi,
My central locking and clock work while the car is running or just switched off but after a short while the car can only be unlocked with a key and the central locking releases once the ignition is turned on. The clock needs resetting every time. It's as though the is no permanent live available to feed these items. Any ideas? Incidentally the radio sounds like it has an arial fault and can't pick up any stations (all other functions on it appear to work).
Ta, Colin

How old is the car battery? Does the engine sound a bit slow when you're trying to start it?
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Inside every old person is a young person wondering what the hell happened.

Hi, has an aftermarket radio been fitted?
Has anyone been messing around in the fusebox?
Check the shunt in the fusebox is in the client position.
If thats ok check all the fuses.
