    Do the indicator lights flash when you click the fob? Could simply be a case of a dead battery in the fob.

    I posted some stuff about re pairing the fob to the car then re read his post and realised the fob was opening one of the doors. So I deleted my post. Clarel will be on the right track with something coming adrift in the door. Either that or a dead door motor.

    Oh, I missed that (or was having a strawberry blonde moment).

    Yep we both missed it which is some doing considering its a one line post.:)
    What he should do is operate the fob while getting his ear close to the door to see if he can hear the motor or solenoid operating. If he can hear a noise in the door then its likely a linkage come adrift or broken. Should be easy to fix.

    Hi Guys,

    I've taken off the door panel and there is no loose connections, it must be electrical. I will book it in the garage, many Thanks
