Remote locking

Hi

HAs anyone experienced difficulty remote locking their car. With mine when you lock on the remote the drivers door often stays unlocked, and you have to unlock the car on the remote and then manually push the latch to the locked position and then shut the door and press the remote locking. I hope that makes sense.

There have been other occassions when the boot half releases and then you have to fiddle for ages to get it to open. Advice please

Thanks

I have the same problem!

I usually press the button twice to lock it as im pretty sure that it only arms the alarm with one press, land rover button is set for tailgate and only works when im pulling on the latch at the same time as pushing the button.

Not sure if its meant to do it but ive managed with it fine. Rolling Eyes where theres a wil theres a way!

IIRC pressing the button a second time disarms the interior movement detection feature of the alarm. For use if, for example, you left a dog in the car.

I had exactly the same thing the other week, every time I remote central locked I could open
drivers door and set the alarm off. Think mine has something to do with the new door that was just
fitted though...... Confused

Strangely enough booked in for this week for the repair centre to check the door to see why the door
wasn't locking and its totally stopped doing it. Repair centre claimed it was due to low battery voltage but the
words "straws" and "clutching" came to mind..... Thud

How old's your battery?

I had all manner of wierd and wonderful errors until I changed the battery on out D3 last year - The battery never seemed that bad, but didn't hold a charge as well as the new one does, and all the weird and wonderful things like central locking etc no longer happen. So there could be some thruth in the "low battery voltage" claim.
