Title: Central locking relay
Post by: Wizard on February 10, 2009, 07:43:51 AM
My central locking system is working intermittently. I think the problem is with the relay behind the driver kick panel. I can hear buzzing on occasion when the door locks do not operate. Does anyone know the part # for this relay or have a photo of one. I would rather have a replacement in hand before I remove everything necessary to access it.

Thanks,
Dan

I believe the electrical manual has a diagnosis for the system, step by step.

If you cant get one they are very easy to repair just strip the board out of the housing and wash the board with alcohol and away you go
