lo all,

I believe I have a problem with my central locking receiver, both keys have been tested and work fine.

Is the receiver in the block in the middle of the roof? and also could it be a fuse that has blown?

Does anyone know which fuse it might be?

Any advice would be appreciated?

Thanks

James

whats the problem ?

could just need resyncing

The central locking works intermittently on both keys.

Sometimes you can go to the car and press the unlock button and it works but 95% of the time it doesnt work now.

Same with the lock button.

How do you re-sync?

Have you considered interference blocking your transmitter

Does it happen in a certain location or everywhere  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Still hoping for a S2 one day!

I did think of that but the problem happens anywhere.

Nobody had any problems with remote central locking from the key fobs such as my problem?

Have a look on the D3 site - this thread has information regarding a wiring splice that has been known to cause issues.

How do you re-sync the keys?

chapman, I thought by now you should already know where/what the box is? I even showed you how the box
looks like.... http://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/post316007.html#316007


You can restore the keys' synchronisation by starting the engine with the unsynchronized ignition key and
allowing the engine to run for a minimum of 6 minutes.  Malaysia Boleh!

Yeh sorry I got that image.

What is the location of it though?

The RF (radio frequency) receiver is ITEM #3...

How do you access that without ripping all the roof lining out?

Thanks for replying.
How indeed?

What do you actually want to do? Malaysia Boleh!

Well either A swap it or B check the connection to it.

Because I dont believe both keys have packed in at the same time?

I believe both keys are working fine and it is something internal thats the problem like the wiring or the receiver. But I dont see how anything could have changed with the wiring.

Regards,

James

Have you tried to re-sync the keys?

Ripping the roof lining might be going too far.
Best would be to get a dealer to run a diagnostic and see if they can find the fault. Malaysia Boleh!
