    Angry Key FOB and Locking Problems!!!

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I am about to beat the shit out of my car with an golf club.
    Problems:
    1) Driver's door lock: When I put my key into the lock and try to unlock or lock my car nothing happens. There is no noise from the pump or horn sounding as to verify the car has been locked. The locks do nothing.

    2)Key FOB: Yesterday I went into class and locked my car using the remote and i heard the horn sound. Came out of class the F****** remote doesnt work. So first I changed the batteries and still NOTHING. I have tried all the reprogramming DIY that i could find. The only problem my driver's door lock doesnt work so I used the trunk. I get to step 3 which is lock the car and hit the unlock button and the lights DO flash but it doesnt program the key. I need to get this fixed.

    ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT!!! I need this solved as soon as possible. I can only lock and unlock my car through the trunk.

    All I can think of is that the power locking pump has failed....or is failing.

    Although that would not explain ur remote not working.

    Can't you even open manually with your key?

    You have to be able to open your driver's door with your key.
    The pump as stated above ^ is shut and you might need to replace that, and reprogram your key fob afterward.
    When you try to lock/unlock your door, dont you hear a noise on your trunk? The central locking pump is located on the rear passenger side. Here is a DIY article to replace ithttp://www.audiworld.com/tech/elec131.shtml

    I can not open it manually from the drivers door. The actuator must be broke. I can only open the car from the trunk. The pump functions properly.
