Central Locking problem
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hi there everyone, just joined this group.
I have a 09 plate X-Type, which whilst driving a few days ago a message came up on the Dash Saying 'Security Failed' , I switched the ignition on and off and the message disappeared and hasn't come back, however the central locking no longer works if I use the key I can open the driver's door, start the car, but it doesn't unlock any of the other doors, they're deadlocked and can't even be unlocked from the inside. If I use the remote to unlock/lock the car then I get the flash of the indicators, but it doesn't unlock any door at all.
Trying to resolve the issue, so far I've disconnected the battery terminals for about an hour / recoded the fobs to the car but neither has made any difference.
Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be, my instincts say the driver's door latch is at fault, but surely the other doors would unlock, or are they reliant on a signal from the driver's door rather than the control module.
Any help would be appreciated.
ThanksChris

Well some progree has been made ...... I've replaced fuse 22 behind the glovebox and that allows both the key and the fob to unlock the doors; apart from the passenger side rear door that is. So I'm guessing there's a problem with the latch in that door that blew the fuse.
SO now the problem has moved onto how to get that door open so I can replace the latch, unfortunately it's dead locked and I can't find a way to unlock it yet.
Has anyone had to do this before (I'm sure they will have done 🙄
? and if so how did you do it?
