    Default Remote Locking and Door problems

    Hi Guys.

    Any advice here would be appreciated.
    Having more problems with my Stilo.
    Remote locking keyfob has stopped working.
    The keyfob battery is good and the LED illuminates when the buttons are pressed so I think the key is fine.

    It's strange because this problem has co-incided with a problem with the passenger door.
    Picking the wife up the other day, I hit the door unlock button, thats on the inside of the drivers door, to unlock her door. But when she pulled the handle the door wouldn't open.
    Tried to open from the inside and same story. Handle just pulls but nothing happens.

    The door lock button and the keyfob were still locking/unlocking both doors at this time.
    The inner handle of the passenger door also unlocks the lock, but the door will just not open.
    It feels to me as if the deadlock is not releasing.

    Then a day or two later as I was trying different stuff to lock/unlock the passenger door, the keyfob just stopped working and has not worked for days now.

    So problems are:

    Passenger door will lock/unlock but inner/outer handle will not open door.
    Keyfob will not lock/unlock doors. Battery and LED on keyfob are ok.

    Any ideas how to fix guys?

    Cheers

    Andy

    that will most likely be the cable, had that on mine, when doors were frozen and i just ripped the cable off... i think it costed me around £50 to sort it out, what concerns the key... try to put it into the starter, turn it on to ignition and then press locking button, not 100% sure whether thats the right combination for it, there was some1 having similar problems here, i've got one key that doesnt work aswell, even tho the battery is fine in it...

    Cheers for the advice pal.

    But I think I'm driving Herbies evil Italian 2nd cousin.
    Couldn't open passenger door for 5 days then yesterday was cleaning out the car and tried the door just for the hell of it and the bleeder swings wide open no problem.
    Now working perfectly again.

    Keyfob still on fritz tho. Will try what you suggested.

    Cheers
