Hi all,

Recently found out that you can prevent costly repairs to the central locking system in a very easy way.

Do this test first and convince yourself :

With the car doors locked ( with auto-locking enabled or locked with the remote) and you sitting inside the car, pull on the inside door handle lightly. Feel the tension on the system and make a mental note of the pressure required to unlock the door. Now use the electric switch ( on the dashboard) to electrically unlock the doors, and feel the tension now required to open the door. Much less!

So you ask what the issue is. Well, inside the door is a thin cable system running over small pulley system. The continuous use of the manual release cable system will cause the cable, and or pulley system to fail.

By using the electric release on the dash you will electrically release the lock system and unload the cable (Backup) release system. So remember – push the button don’t just pull the handle. Replacement of this cable/pulley system will set you back a lot of money!!
