Central locking system

I recently purchased a 2000 s80 model without the remote lock access key (didnt know even had 1) and now I am having a central locking system problem. It doesnt seem to work using the drivers side door control which means my fuel door will not open. I am about to run outta gas and it still wont open. Is there a way I can open this door so I cna put some gas in my car

Thanks

I had a similar problem w recently bought 2003 S80.Several points: 1) Access your locking selonoid through the trunk interior panel ... loosen a few hex bolts and slide out for maintenance; 2) I fixed my lock by simply using light teflon-based oil (like for bike chains). I exercised it a few times and it works beautifully; 3) Not sure on your model, but gas door on the '03 unlocks when you push the associated release button under the headlight control switch. It is not designed to unlock w the key (again, check owners manual for your year). Hope this helps. master_pre08-04-2007, 09:35 AMYeah, the fuel door on my 2000 S80 is connected with the door locks. In order for it to open you have to unlock all the doors to the car. Sssnake08-14-2007, 03:39 PM Thanks Guys,

I removed the locking mechanism and applied a little silicon graphite and now it works like a charm.

Holden rodeo 2007 central locking not working but passenger side indicator responding had a new battery recently but don't know if this has caused the problem as I have only just purchased the vehicle

Check the fuse covering the central locking system to ensure it is sound. (refer owners manual for its location in your vehicle). If OK, disconnect the battery for 30 minutes and then reconnect and check the operation of the locking system with your key pad.

Where is the re-set button to program a remote door lock for my 2000 Subaru Forester?

Obtain all keys/remote controls. Remove driver's side kick panel/lower 'A' pillar trim. Connect central locking registration connectors (white) - black wire and black/blue wire Fig. 2 . Unlock the vehicle using the key. Program first key/remote control as follows: Press unlock button Fig. 1 [1], then lock button [2]. The door lock should lock and unlock in sequence confirming programming of first key/remote control. Repeat programming procedure for remaining key(s)/remote control(s). Once the last key/remote control is programmed disconnect central locking registration connectors. Check operation of all programmed keys/remote controls.

Central locking system

I have recently had this problem I believe this to has been caused by a fault in the drivers door lock assembly It seems this contains the remote receiver. In my case I think there had been some radio interference being the main cause. The remote system seems to be working OK, The door lock will still not operate with the key.
Remove and replace the fuse 25 resetting the ignition module. Starting the engine, switch off remove the key from the ignition, stay in the car lock the doors using the door button, press and hold the remote unlock button for approx 5 seconds, listen to see if you can hear the clicking of the door receiver when you press the remote buttons. Press and hold lock/unlock button. You may be lucky.

Unable to lock/unlock doors with key or remote

In answer to your question nothing had been replaced or repaired prior to the problem.
Batteries in all the remotes or the car have been renewed. Problem still exists.
Removal and replacement of the fuse 25 resetting the ignition module. Starting the engine and moving the car to a different location the locking system operated normally but on returning to my home the system failed.
My wife returned home later and her car a different make and model would not lock.
I have since turned off my broadband wireless network system and holding the lock button for approx 15 seconds the lock operated.
I will post findings after further trails
