Should have said, its an E30, obviously, but more specifically, a 316i with central locking. Hope this is the correct section aswell?

is there a fuse/ relay for the central locking, would removal & replacement cause the locking to pop up?

This is a public forum, and I thought people would have known better than to post up details on how to break into our cars!
OK, not the hardest of cars to break into, but I don't agree with leaving the instructions on how to do so on here.
