Repairing Central Locking System




Repairing central locking system


NOTE:
- After the car has been parked for a lengthy time and/or after replacing the central locking system pump, the central locking system will not function properly until prompted repeatedly.
- When the system is operating correctly, all locks will close within 2 seconds.
- If the pump operates for longer than 5 seconds, there is a leak in the system.
- When there is a leak in the system, the pump must not run for more than 30 seconds. The pump's control unit must shut it off at this point.
- All the lock actuators are equipped with special vacuum line connectors that must lock when plugged in.
