A8 2.8 2000 Automatic

Featured Replies

Hi, new here, searched everywhere for info on central locking on my A8L 2.8 W reg automatic.

 

It's worked perfect no problems ever. Then got up in the morning and it doesn't work off the fob or from the drivers door lock

The boot opens on the fob still, and the alarm activates off the fob still.

 

I've noticed on the dash where it shows the doors open in red, that the passenger front and rear don't show as open when they are.

If the front passenger door is open on its own, the interior light flashes on and off smoothly, not like a strobe.

 

Is this going to be a cheap easy fix or shall I just manually unlock the doors lol

 

Thanks in advance everyone

many of this type of fault relates back to how the loom enters the door from the body of the car. repetitive opening and closing over near 19 years may have caused a breakdown in the loom. 

The hard part will be identifying the errant wire (if any) and repairing it. The interior light flashing could be a symptom of this loom breakdown.
