Central Locking Not Working ?

[smckeown 1]

Gav's miami shed didnt have working central locking so i took a good look the other day. After swapping over a few bits we worked out it was the central locking relay box

 

 

So being the destrictive type i opened up the box to find one of the elements needed soldering

 

 

After soldering it worked a treat

Where do you find the central locking relay box?

Under the steering column - need to take the plastic cover from under the sterring wheel off (think there's two plastic covers to remove), then there's a black plastic box thing (see pic above) to the left of the steering wheel, held up sideways by 2 nuts.

 

You need to remove the 2 nuts and the plastic connection, and there you have it.

I've had a good look for this both in the steering column and above the pedals but for the life of me I can't find it (and it doesn't appear in Haynes).

 

Can anyone confirm that these exist on a Phase 1.5 and if so where.

 

Thanks

I don't think it's there on a Phase 1.5 Rob - I *think* it's only there on models with remote central locking fitted (ie Phase 2 models). If it is there, then it will be to the left of the steering column and mounted on it's side (or atleast there's where mine is)

 

Generally if the locking doesn't work on a P1.5, I've usually found it to be dodgy wiring or a knackered master solenoid (the drivers door one)

[M@tt 77]

my 1.5 didn't have this box either (E reg) so i believe anthony is correct. it seems to be controllerd by the drivers mechanism.

 

if its dodgy bin it and for £22 from maplin you can get a brnad new 4 door setup which allows all locks open action fromt eh passenger side as well

[Rob_the_Sparky 9]

OK, thought I was going mad! Probably just the driver's door swith is dead then. Not sure I can be arsed in that case, it is only on the commuter and it works sometimes.

I had central locking on my g plate 1.9 phase 1.5, it was a se tho.

Woah woah... non-topic related, but what the hell is a Phase 1.5 ????????

How is it not a P1 or P2?

Phase 1 is 1984-1987 models with the earlier style dash (sliding heater controls), early lights and grey trim/interior

Phase 1.5 is 1987-1990 models with the later style dash (rotary heater controls), early lights and grey trim/interior

Phase 2 is 1991-on models with the later style dash (rotary heater controls), later lights and black trim/interior

And phase 1's are best

 

 

Was gonna post a similar problem with my ph 1.5's C/L but I guess the answers already been given.Will check the driverside door solenoid.

Just rung peogeot £55 i don't think so,took it apart and all looks good so i don't know what to do now,i've changed the actuators in the doors and the car will unlock all the doors with the key but won't lock them any ideas please help?

[daza 0]

What does that white/blue box do? it's connected to the central locking unit is that a relay?

[Ren 0]

The white and blue box is the buzzer to tell you your headlights are on when you switch your engine off.

ok thanks m8! it must be a dodgy connection or earth then?

[steve@cornwall 100]

ok thanks m8! any ideas what i can try now?

 

I think you can adjust the height of the actuator in the door? try moving it up and down. Check rods aren't bent restricting travel and strangely enough, that your door handles are not beginning to corrode, as this affects locking by not springing back to fully down position- why so many doors jam whilst layed up.

thanks will have a look later,whats happened is if i lock all the doors with key then unlock with drivers door they all unlock,but then if i lock drivers door just drivers door locks

[daza 0]

ok i've checked earths,making sure rods go fully down and now i'm completly stuck, what i can't understand is it will unlock all the doors but won't lock them.

i've done a search and tryed everything people say but no one seems to have same problem,please help i'm pulling my hair out...
