Hey guys

02 C2

both my my keys fobs have given up the ghost - no remote locking

i am ok with manual locking but when I turn the key to lock from outside only the driver door locks

if I am inside the car and press the lock switch both doors lock

no beeps / no codes

im sure there's a way to program the car to lock and unlock both doors when I manually lock with the key

can someone point me in the right direction?

Both doors should lock and unlock with the key. Someone else here had a similar problem recently but I don't know the outcome. I'll see if I can find the thread but in the meantime try searching for it.

Edit - The thread I was talking about doesn't provide a resolution. Curiously, it was also an '02.

With the driver door open, press the lock button in the console, then get out and close the door. (Works on my '03; I'd be surprised if it didn't work on an '02.)

Should is the operative word haha

I tried this prior to posting and confirm that it doesn't work on my car

Problem is that without any codes being thrown it is hard to know what is going on... OP if you turn the key in the driver's door twice are you able to lock the passenger door? I assume you've replaced the keyfob batteries? Many auto parts stores have a tester for the remote keyfob. It is quite simple-minded: it just detects common frequencies and flashes an LED at you.

Thanks for this - posted a question


Turning the key twice doesn't work either - thank you. Yes new batteries tested - keys are now just totally dead regardless. you're thinking it's just the LED?

bal

No - the tester at the auto parts store (O'Reilly, etc.) has flashes an LED at you when it detects radio signals at typical car key fob frequencies.

Are there no codes being generated by the alarm module?

Does your central locking button actually function? I just looked at a car in March that had similar problems...the symptoms seemed to added up to an immobilizer issue in my mind or some other electrical gremlins.

Remote didn't work. Turning key in driver lock didn't lock the passenger side. 2 turns in the lock did not result in the beeps indicating internal alarm off. entry lights did not come on when doors opened. central locking button did not function. Could not raise or lower the cab roof by holding key in lock/unlock position

Similar issues to what I'm experiencing on my car. All used to work. Now central locking works sporadically when one of the lids is open. Troubleshooting is pointing to the alarm module but since driving isn't affected and I tend to only drive it with the top down anyway, I'm not inclined to throw $1,000 at it yet... ECU Doctors (who are on here) will do a diagnosis. It requires you sending in your DME, alarm module and keys. New alarm modules seem to be at the $700 mark and require PST2, PIWIS and IPAS codes to be coded to your car.
