Hello all,
I've been a Transit custom owner for all of three days, having part exchanged my Transporter for an Ex-Hilti Transit Custom Limited spec - it seems to have every single option going and is a massive step up from my old van - I didn't even have a readout of outside temp in that!!
Anyway - I have just one issue that's really bugging me: The rear door ajar warning keeps throwing a wobbly....
When the back doors are open, the dash correctly says the doors are open.
If I close them, the dash again correctly says that the back doors are shut, however if I then lock the doors from the interior button (or with auto lock as the van pulls away) the dash goes into one, saying the back doors are open. If I press the unlock button, the warning goes off. Obviously, the doors have stayed shut throughout...
My suspicion is that the microswitch within the lock mechanism is not working correctly, but I guess it could also be a wiring issue between the lock and the BCM.
Has anyone had a similar problem, and if so, how did you sort it, or, does anyone know what I should be getting if I continuity check the three 'status' pins on the lock mechanism when it's opened/closed/locked?
Any help gratefully appreciated before I spend too much money or time on it!!
