TD5 electric's

(1/1)

mobimick:
Hi all,
Have a couple of problems on my TD5;
1) Fuel filler cover won't open (have to flip it open with key - not doing paintwork any good) presume there's a faulty solenoid somewhere?
2) Driver door lock will not open with remote and when the car is locked the door lock 'rattles' up and down for about a second before locking?
Any ideas as to where I check first (fuses are all OK)

Cheers

Range Rover Blues:
2 sounds like an over centre spring is bust in the lock, so it never stays in the unlocked position causing the locking to cycle.

1 not so sure, either a faulty solenoid or it is sticking, can you hear the mechanism at all?

mike142sl:
It may be teaching you to suck eggs etc BUT re 1) you have turned the ignition off to the 'O' position before pressing the release button?

mobimick:
Fuel filler dead no noises at all............ New lock mechanism then I presume?
If so where's the best place to gey one?
