Does anybody know if there is a fuse in my car for the central locking? I need to remove it to break circuit.?

Every time i lock the car via my door it kicks it back out again, sometimes back and fourth back and fourth again then stops.


I cannot lock the car i need to disable the electrics so i can lock it manually.


I have looked in the normal fuse box and the engine and in the control panel under the passenger seat.


Please is there a way i can lock the doors manually?


:0)|||do you think this is just electrics





or could there possibly be something stuck / jammed in the locking bit.


if the door has been slammed hard the fastening may have been moved (the bar that pushes the lock shut when moved by the motor)


i had this when fitting a replacement motor, adjusted too much there is not enough movement or even too much, the lock doesnt quite lock and the motor thinks it being opened again.|||You must take the car to the mechanic, playing around with the fuse box might lead to malfunction of the car.|||The fuse you are looking for usually is in the places you have looked,


you should be able to lock the doors manually using the key anyway. I do never bother with the key fob thing|||try looking for another fuse box under hood usually on pass side inner fender may be fuse or relay you can remove there|||Hi there,


It's difficult to give you a direct answer as regards fuses etc. without knowing what model and year of car you have, but as a mechanic with 35yrs experience the fault you have sounds very much like a faulty door lock solenoid. Again without knowing the car details it is difficult to advise you further of the repair costs incurred, but I would say an average price for a new solenoid is less than 拢50.00 plus of course about one to two hours labour. I hope this helps.|||Fords are renound for having central locking problems and yes there is a fuse.


It should be in the fuse box but ford use pictures not numbers!


Try looking for a picture of a key and remove this fuse but afterwards try all the other electrical items on the car to make sure that the fuse didnt power something else as well!|||the fuse on the fords normally does the central locking and factory fitted alarm, sometimes simply leaving the fuse out for 30 mins will sort your problem.


my escort used to do this every 12months or so.|||Sounds to me like the mechanism that goes from lock to central locking unit is poorly adjusted. Have your mechanic have a look, it might just be an adjustment, it might need a new central locking unit, but either way he/she should know which fuse to pull.





Can I also suggest locking from passenger side.





Hope this helps.
