The Accountant Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Hi all Got a small problem with my central locking. Only got the car last week & when first viewing the keys didn't lock the car. Anyway the garage had it sorted, but now when you press the unlock button only the driver side door unlocks, also just sometimes the passenger side window slides halfway down. Is it something easy to sort? I have a warrenty & could pop it back to the garage, but it's 50miles away. Just wondered if it's something I could do myself? Any help would be great. Thanks Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 The unlock thing is easy. Basically you can set the key to unlock either only the drivers door, or both doors. Lock the car, then press and hold the unlock button until the indicators blip (after about 5 seconds IIRC) that should have changed it to both doors.

Grantmitchell Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Actually found another post listing the procedure as ... "Hold both the open button and close button at the same time for 5 secs IIRC to change the setting " which is slightly different from Lexxs version , will give it a go later but suspect it still wont work on my pre facelift model, however I do think this is the correct procedure for newer cars.

Lexx Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Grant - You could be right. I may be getting the procedure for the RX8 I had and the 350z mixed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebized Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 See this thread: viewtopic.php?f=35&t=19759&hilit=setting+the+door+opening Although there is a suggestion it does not work on pre-facelift UK supplied cars I certainly recall it did on the 2004 350 that I owned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
