Ls 400

[ROYT]

My LS has refused to lock a few times without a lot of key twiddling, although it always UNLOCKS first time.

I've read up on it and it points to the internal keylock switch.

Before I go randomly scattering money in all directions.......I wonder if this problem has happened to others and what was the cure?

Any info. you guys?

Hi,

Sounds like dirty or worn connections if its on the central locking,if its just the drivers door then id say the lock is worn.

Hi Chips .....thanks for the reply...it happens when you try to lock the car.

The internal door switches work perfect. When it eventually decides to work , all doors lock normally and the security light goes on.

It's like a bad connection but only when locking.

Apparently there is a switch on the lock and this is suspect....I did'nt want to take the door trim off

if the fault was elsewhere...............

cheers
