central locking locks but wont open again ????

Postby bigayal » Wed Aug 22, 2018 12:55 pm

hi there i have tried looking on here but i cant seem to find the answer i am looking for (due to being slightly obtuse i suspect :D ) if someone could help or point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated ,

right so the central locking will lock all the doors and sliding door but then wont open any of them again using the key there is no noise from any of the locks :( i dont have a fob at all but surely it should open using the key anyway right?????

thanks in advance for any replies

Just a thought.....when You turn the key to the right are You pushing it quite hard ? The lock mechanism is pretty stiff to actuate. Regards Stephen Australia

I would suspect the unlock remote button being faulty or dirty .

You can lock any Tibbe locked Ford with any Tibbe key, but only the correct key will unlock it, so it could be that you either have an incorrect key; or maybe the lock, or key, is worn (more likely the key)

Get another blank key cut, it doesn't need to have a chip, and if that unlocks the door, Bob's yer dad's bruv :D

Well, it's worth a try.
My Mk6 had a key which started it, but wouldn't open the door or the bonnet, so I had an unchipped key cut just for that job.

Timpsons can cut one for you.

The door lock and key are purely mechanical and should work with no power, unless there's a mechanical problem with the lock or the key.
