Could I install keyless entry and locking in an 89 mercedes 300E with central locking?

My 89 300E has central locking but I was wondering if I could install a power locks thing on my car. how much do you think it would cost?|||Possible but not easy. Lots of time consumption.|||You might find an aftermarket auto electronics store to do it for you. If they do you might have electrical issues afterward.

Central locking not working.opened car manually and fuse box is clicking constant. Can't find a burned fuse?

i really don't know what it is. when i take out the fuse that is labelled ALIM UCH the ticking stops. I don't think my alarm works anyway on the car. Also the car won't even start. is there some problem with the engine managment system?|||it is not the fuse box clicking it is a relay switch near the fuse box..


check your car manual for the label that says ALIM UCH, this is no engine problem maybe this is worn/shorted wiring that needs to be fixed|||please indicate year make and model and i might be able to help you|||Try replacing the battery.... the clicking could well be the system trying to come online but due to lack of power it is unable too.|||The clicking sounds is the relay, you need to find which one it is and by the sound for thing replace it.


Ja.|||In my car, the central locking wouldn't work and the engine wouldn't start because I'd left my lights on and drained the battery. Maybe check the battery and charge it if necessary.|||has is said it's a relay put your finger on each one in turn and you will find the bad one(no you won't get a shock)|||Sounds as if the central locking/alarm/immobiliser unit is fried. Suggest a qualified mechanic with renault experience|||The clicking noise is most likely a relay... when you pull the fuse, it kills the power to that relay (black square box @ 1"x1"). Find the relay that's clicking, and start by replacing that. Good Luck!|||The clicking from the fuse box will definately be a relay, track it down and change it. There's nothing in a fuse that could click.

I own a VW Polo a while ago my central locking went in my drivers door and now my passenger door!can you help?

I cannot now open either of my doors, and my options are to either leave the car unlocked OR lock the doors and climb through the boot to open my drivers door! i changed a fuse for the central locking, but this did not help! Can anybody suggest anything else? Many Thanks|||2 small paddles that fasten to door lock barrels have broken .These operate central locking triggers in either door.If you can get the paddles from a scrap yard they can be replaced but its a right fiddly job.remove door inner panels undo door catch mechanism from the edge of the door then undo door handle remove door handle and you will see the paddle about 2 inch long its held in place by a horseshoe clip and spring pressure(right bi*ch to put back together) then you have to reassemble the handle and lock mechanism back in the door both at the same time or they wont mate up then replace door inner panel and trim.Good luck I did my daughters last week a right bas*ard job|||Many cars that have a command switch to operate all windows and door lock from the driver's. With alot of these car if this switch goes bad it will stop operation of any of the door or windows. It is the most used switch and because of it will wear out the fastest

My remote central locking is not working properly. It will lock but not open. what could be the problem?

It will lock but not open. I can hear the flick in the car like it trying to open and the lights turn on but the car stays locked unless I open the car manually. What is the problem?|||Start by changing your remote battery.It uses less power to lock the system than unlock it,hope this helps(make and year of car will get you a better answer)|||Depends on what car? if it clicks then the motor is working, what you have to do is get next to the car operate the remote and you should see the button bounce, if it does this then the door trim needs to come off and free the arm that feeds the door opening pin with oil and make sure the vapour sheet and door trim go on correct, so the pin can pop up.


Hope this helps.|||try reprogramming your key. Look in the manual and it should tell you. I had similar problem my central locking wouldnt work but i could open and shut doors with manual key. Then reprogrammed key and now it works fine. Try doing this before taking it to anyone as it will cost you money to do this.

Fitting central locking and alarm on ford fiesta 02 reg?

Hi People!





I would like to know how I can go about to have a central locking and alarm fitted on my car, is it a diffcult and costly process? how much would it cost to have this done by garage compared to dealer ship. If possible how easy is it to fit myself?|||first of all dont worry about the alarm no one will steal it incase it breaks down on the way Fixed Or Repaired Daily but if it is an 2002 plated car did you no that All cars built after 1998 must have a standard alarm system fitted when being built also an imobiliser system with chip in your ignition key and central locking so alarm and imoboliser works properly well it is in england anyway|||Why? Who do you think's gonna bother nicking a Fiesta? But seriously, alarm's an easy job but central locking'll cost you more than the car's worth.

Central locking & alarm bo not work. What can i try.The car got river damage?

The car is rover 416|||hi there it sounds as water has got into central locking system as the central locking activates alarm when locked depending how bad river damage and how high water covered car ir could be relay or drivers door switch check your fuse box for blown fuse if not check for water at fuse box also try drying units with hairdryer hope this helps you jock|||Check that nothing is fouling propellor.|||Get the car checked out by a professional, sounds like an electrical short somewhere.|||look, no one is going to steal a rover 416... i'll bet the doors still lock manually, and an alarm can be refitted... just get a kids cycle lock, the twisted cable type, wrap it around the seat base and then thru the steering wheel... theyre very difficult to remove, and at five quid it doesnt get any cheaper...





i did this for the last 5 years on my volvo... i didnt even lock it...
