sti 05 central locking problem
Hi guys,
so, my central locking has been playing up the last few days.
in the morning I go outside, press unlock and nothing..if i stand there and press buttons furiously eventually it will unlock. I can unlock with the key in the door and it all works fine, tried both keys and also replaced the battery in both keys..still the same! if i try in the afternoon when the car has been in the sun..it works perfectly every time! very very frustrating!
any thoughts?
is there an antenna for the key signal? or any boxes or wires to check?
in my e46 bmw i had the same and was a control module and the relays on the PCB were packing up due to the load of locking and unlocking 4 doors..im thinking it is something similar but cant find the box..
