lock

I have a 1998 VT SS 304 Ever since I bought the car (2022), the key buttons worked on and off. Some times the buttons would work, others not. This went for about 6 months, until it stopped working. I put a new battery in, but still nothing. There is no noise from any where in the car when any...

I have a Vs commodore wanting to upgrade the door lock in drivers door to something better/more secure What have people done

So basically what is happening is stupid. The dash says that the door is closed but all of them are closed. I know it’s not the trunk or hood because the car didn’t have that function it’s a 2008 caprice Middle East. So I’m confused on how to know if it’s the entire mechanism/ actuator of the...

Please help as I am stuck at work. So my car alarm likes to go off every now and then when I unlock the car but no big deal I just turn the car on and it stops. Today was different. Alarm went off but the key would not turn over at all. A blinking red lock light kept coming on. I unlocked the...

Here's what I did to solve problem of VZ wagon tailgate not locking. Just for information of anyone else with the same problem. Problem: the first malfunction was that the tailgate would only unlock manually, i.e. by using the ignition key. After a while, it 'fixed itself', so that it no longer...

We recently replaced the front left passenger door actuator, as it wasn't locking at all. We got everything working, except central locking for this one door. We arn't sure what the bit circled below is for, if anything. I was also struggling to find any diagrams at all, the two i did found did...

So I cant unlock/lock my 96 VS executive manually by turning the key in the lock. It just does not turn (same for the boot). Yet I can control the locking from the key. Any help would be well appreciated.

since i bought it 7 month ago, the central locking in my wh works fine, apart from the rear right door. Actuator sounds good, so i pulled the door card off to find that the control arm that runs the lock/unlock to the door lock itself is just missing the top plastic clip that connects it to the...

Hi my LHR lock actuator is fried and has locked itself and won't unlock, i have a new actuator, and the bars to connect to it as i pulled the other one put with pliers trying to unlock the door. I was wondering if theres a way i could get into the door trim to change the lock over, without...

Hey guys, I recently purchased a VE commodore, and have no issues getting in and out of the vehicle using the buttons on the remote. When, however I go to unlock the door with the physical key, nothing happens. I can turn it clockwise and counterclockwise, however the actual lock on the door...

Took battery out of my vx commodore and broke of the metal part that's soldering to the bottom of battery and circuit board. Left ignoring on for 6 hours and no immobiliser off. My vt worked but vx hasn't .don't bother with saying locksmith etc. I'm a backyard lol ain't have funds for new 1. Any...

Just recently installed some new speakers in the driver and passenger doors, passenger went smoothly but upon re attaching the drivers side door trim I discovered the little button above the inside door handle wont fully move to the lock position. The door itself does lock both remotely and...

Hi, first time posting. I recently bought a 2004 VY Equipe (series 2) and everything was fine until a week later when upon locking with the remote, the car beeped 5 times. The problem became more constant and every morning I would have to sit in the drivers seat and push the lock knob up and...

hey guys and girls i have a vz sv6 and my central locking has been playing up lately, and lastnight i locked my keys in the car and had to break in first of the buttons on my key for unlock if i push it once for a second it will just unlock the front door if i hold it down it will unlock...

Hi all, Was just wondering how I'd go about installing buttons in the centre console to lock and unlock the doors in a VZ Berlina sedan. I know pressing either of the front locks down will lock all doors and pulling any lock up will unlock all doors but I just want the feel of pressing buttons...

I have a vs ute. I bought the car from a guy who had no keys for the hard lid, so I was wondering what the best way to go about being able to lock my hard lid will be. Change the locks and get brand new keys? Is it possible to get a key that will fit mu existing locks? or get an entire...

Hey I had a look and couldn't find an answer for my problem, I have a 1993 vp executive s2, problem is the locks are dodgy as. I can't unlock either doors or the boot with the key, but I can lock them. I can only unlock the car with the remote after pressing the button 20 odd times. The key...

Hey all Sorry if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find anything. I have set my system so when I go out of park, the doors automatically lock. Now I haven't had any issues with the locks yet. However, today, when I tried to unlock the driver's door manually from inside, I found...

Hi all, when I press unlock, the drivers door lock stays in the locked position but the door unlocks. I had a look, and the little thing that bobs up and down is just freely sitting there. I pulled it out and there's a metal rod with a thread on it. It seems weird to me because it isn't long...

Hi all, I have just joined this site today to ask this question. I know this may be a dumb question, but I would like to know how to access the menu where you can change the cars settings. To be specific, I want to enable "approach lighting", "egress lighting" and "beep remote lock", as they are...

I've been thinking for some time, is there a way to make the cargo/rear door of a wagon able to be opened from inside the car? This is for a VX, but I'd imagine VT, VY and VZ would all be the same, and earlier models maybe. Today I had the trim off the cargo door on my VX and had a look at...

Hi there, I have an interesting problem with the 4 speed auto on a 6 Cyl VL. Basically at random times the torque converter does not appear to lock or randomly unlocks even though my speed is constant (I.E. 100 km/h) It still shifts through all 4 gears but it just does not lock the converter. I...

I've got a '07 WM and its blowing fuses when you lock the doors (could be unlock as well). I've tried swapping over the unlock and lock relays so I assume it must be one of the actuators thats died. does anyone know a way to test the actuators to see which one has died? or have any other ideas?

Ok Im replacing some of my doors and I just had a few question: -How exactly do you remove the door hinge pins? I kind of understand how to do it but just looking for some extra tips. -How should I go about inserting my original door lock/handle in the new replacement? with this Ive for...
