    Default Central Locking won't lock (VR Calais)

    As the thread title says, my central locking won't lock. It locks, then pops back up straight away. Sometimes it just keeps going, unlocking, then locking and then unlocking again and over and over. I've tried using the key in the door too, but that doesn't work either.

    Any help is much appreciated

    Sometimes only the drivers door stays locked, but mostly all doors are popping up and down

    so you either have 3 faulty solenoids or a faulty BMC, i had a similar problem with 2 doors on my car when i bought it, one would just pop up as soon as i locked it and the other would not lock or unlock at all, i changed the solenoids in each door and its as good as new.
    You could try replacing your lock solenoids (cost me $52 for each one when i bought them, i have 3 spare ones in the garage now ) but it may be a problem with your bmc if all doors are doing it.
