Try replacing the FOB battery. Check the fuse for door locks. usually located in the engine bay fuse box. Temporarily you can lock the other doors from inside the van and lock the driver door last using the key. Another possibility is that the locking switch in the driver door is faulty or the central locking motor is. All other doors will only lock if the driver door locking system works. When you lock the driver door, the locking motor will hit a switch that will lock the other doors.
2010 camaros only have one central switch just under the radio. It operates a relay that controls the actuators in both doors. Run a trace to eliminate a faulty relay, blown fuse or bad switch. If the doors lock and unlock using the remote I doubt it's the relay. Check the door settings does it unlock when car is shifted into park? If not check settings. Refer to your manual for details of how to set locks.
This worked for me on 2008 Mk5 Golf, after the rear passenger door would not open fro outside or inside.
Hold the inside door latch open and keep it extended, then with the key fob open and close the door locks (still holding the inside latch open). Keep locking and unlocking the door, then it made a kluck and it released.
Toyota Corolla Verso - Central locking has just stopped responding
So you don't waste your time, here are some assumptions: -
1. When I press the key fob there is no sound of doors trying to lock/unlock and I know the key fob is fine.
Solution:
In this situation reset the alarm/locking system
Below is the procedure I followed to get the central locking working again: -
Open the passenger door, and look at the side of the dash board. There should be a triangular panel. Pull the panel off to reveal a small set of fuses(see the back of the panel for the fuse map). To power down the central locking you need to remove the Dome Light fuse, this is located top left. Second one down 7.5 amps. (if in doubt remove the top two 7.5 amp fuses I did)
When you remove the fuse(s) you will notice the interior light go out indicating you have powered down the system.
Now leave them out for at least 30 mins so any capacitors can discharge properly. (Be aware while the fuse is removed all central locking is disabled, so the other doors are open. I left the fuse(s) out over night with all the doors open but I don't recommend it, 30 mins should be fine)
After 30 mins replace the fuse(s) close all doors, and then try your key fob, hopefully you should here that satisfying locking sound.
2. When I press the key fob I hear the locking system trying to engage.
This could be a faulty door switch on any door including the boot, or there could be a dent in the inner door panel of any of the doors, usualy the rear doors due to the seat belt not retracting properly.
Solution:
Check all door switches for damage, and check inner panel for dents, just a small dent where the switch connects can be enough to not engage the switch. This will stop the central locking.
Use some kitchen roll wrapped in tape (as a makeshift pad) and tape to the inner door as a temp measure to engage the door switch. At least you can then lock the car.
renew the drivers door lock or check if the operating solonoid is seperate from lock if so then often a good drop of engine oil down the operating arm often works
Sounds like you have a blown fuse for your power door locks. Open your car's owner's manual, and locate the fuse in the fusebox, and check to see if it's blown. If it is, and you replace it, and it blows again.
You have a short in one of your door motors.
A switch opens the door when you use the central locking system. If the door fails to open or close, this switch has probably gotten detached or the locking mechanism is damaged.
To find the problem and fix it-pull apart the door panel and feel for a thin rod connected to the locking mechanism.
This will help you pinpoint the issue and then fix it.
