Honda Car Forum

Hello all,

my central locking device has ceased to work on my front passenger
side door.

All of the rest of the doors lock and open as they should on the
button and with the key in the drivers side.

I have to lock the car manually now and I am afraid that my passenger
may forget to lock the door.

Do the left and right all work on the same circuit? Is there a
separate fuse possibly?

Where do i start my testing?

Are there things to test before removing the trim from inside of the
door?

I have a a meter. Where to start and what readings should i be seeing?

There was no funny noises or intermittent tendances before the
malfunction, just a plain - stop working.

any help please, cheers, Jim

Does this apply equally to the interior lock switch, and the driver's side
key lock?

It's likely that the servo is now dead. I have a '99 and the door panel
isn't so hard to get off. Then you would put your meter test leads on the
servo terminals to see whether it is getting power when you actuate the lock
switch.

Saludos cordiales,

Earle

Hello Saludos,

thanks for the reply, yes the passenger side front door does not work
unless you press the button down manually, the rest of the locks open
& shut on command of the fob and when you use the key or push the
drivers button down.

I will have a look at taking the intior door fitting out and see if
the servo, or do you mean solenoid - has gone.

Jim

TYPICAL, THE DOOR HAS STARTED TO WORK AGAIN NOW !!!!
