central locking HELP!!!!!!!!!!

[wandy1988]

has the relay gone on my 325 f reg its not letting me unlock her or the bloody filler cap sounds as if its shortin out somewhere some1 helpppp please

[Rav335uk]

Any sounds coming from the front driverside speaker in the footwell??
Is all the C/L not working, or only some?

[wandy1988]

NOISE FROM NEAR THE SPEAKER MATE BOTH SIDES SOME TIMES

[wandy1988]

sorry and none of the c/l is working

[Rav335uk]

Undo the screws to the driverside footwell speaker, 2 iirc,
take the speaker out,
and underneath it in the footwell is the C/L relay, there's 2 bolts that need to be undone to release the bracket for the Relay.
Check to see if there is any water in the footwell too, as this is noramlly the most common problem.

[wandy1988]

ok il do this tomorrow morning is it the relay thats gone if its making a weird noise?thank you for your time buddy

[Rav335uk]

If the relay is gone due to water damage, you'll nee to clean out the inside the footwell and unblock the drains.

[jonny323i]

if not then you need to do the black/red wire mod sounds like your problem is the same as what i had
you do it while the speaker is out on the drivers side
cut the 2 black wires with the red stipe on the back of the plug going through the pillar into the drivers door and join them together

[wandy1988]

ok mate and tht'll solve the problem without buying a new relay?cheers mate

[Rav335uk]

It might do, depends on the actual problem.

[wandy1988]

i know it sounds stupid but ounce iv took the relay out how am i gona be able to tell if its working or not will the pet cap open up and doors unlock or what mate?

[Rav335uk]

Petrolcap lock is easily accessable from the boot, if you can open that.
The lock is ocated behind the carpet, you'll see a hole in the carpet, through that you can slide the lock to open the cap.

[wandy1988]

yeah i can open the boot mate cheers,where do i find a relay lol had a look on here cant seem to find one quite a common fault on these though

[Rav335uk]

Find a relay????

[wandy1988]

well it went in for a full service the other day and for the valves to be done to stop all taps etc and he said he'd had a play around with it not good then?im new to all this mate so i aint got a clue what pm means buddy

[Rav335uk]

They shouldn't have touched it if they knew what they were doing.
Sounds like they have messed up the misture on the AFM.
You need to take it to an MOT station and have it reset, by having the H/C set via machine.

[wandy1988]

just saw your message mate ta

[Rav335uk]

[wandy1988]

ok mate back she goes lol
