FTO AUSTRALIA

hi guys & gals,

Im having problems with my central locking. When i press the remote alarm the car doesnt lock until i press it about 3 - 4 times and then the car locks.

When i manually lock it from the inside it still doesnt lock until i do it about 2 - 3 times.

but when i use the key to lock and unlock the car it works fine.

does anyone have the same problem? or can anyone help me?

a VERY common problem.

The FTO has weak central locking motors / actuators.

Do a search for central locking and you'll find MANY topics which have already covered this and which will answer your question.

In short, get the actuators replaced.

mine seems to have fixed itself somehow... saved myself a handy few bucks too in the process - SCORE!

This problem can also cause by a faulty fuse. I learned this the hard way

thanks for the advise guys...
