Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi All, I'm pretty sure someone has a quick solution for this annoying problem: I can't lock the right door. When I operate the left lock with the key (keyfob never worked) the central lock does not lock neither the right door lock nor the gas cap lid. These latter two things have been working until now, although they have started being finicky recently. Now it's out completely. Central lock switch on the dash does not work either: there's a clicking sound, but no locking, something seems preventing it, but what? Thanks for any input.

I'm having the same issues with mine + the windows don't go down, my suspicion is that it's the immobilizer having corrosion and it may need to be replaced

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I think I'm close to fix this problem and mine does not seem to be an immobilizer issue: when I hit a bump the cabin light flashes. When it remains on that's when it does not let me lock the windows, it's seeing it as still open. It must be the door open-close switch/sensor.
