Locks need to be resync'd. Lock doors at drivers side, go around to pass side unlock & relic 2-3 times. If you can't do from pass door then try trunk lock. If sync doesn't take, then one of your actuators are bad and I'd have BMW look at it or a good BMW specialty shop.

I would check the electrical wiring connector that connects to the B Pillar (the structure between the front and back doors looking for a pinched wire. If you move the rummer boot around a bit I think you can get a pretty good look at the wires and you will be looking for one that might be dangling loose. If this sort of thing isn't really up your alley a trip to the dealer may be in order.

SOURCE: Z4 Central Locking problem - drivers door.

looks like you will need a drivers door lock actuator (contains the latch)if the door will not unlock with the remote either.the lock cylinder usually will fail since you had to use it everytime to unlock the door. the lock cylinder is vin specific so expect a delay when its ordered from the dealership.i would probably expect around $800 for the complete repair, kinda pricey but the dealership will go out of its way to retain a customer.

More than likely your front driver door module has failed.  You will need to replace this module and readapt the key fobs for locking and unlocking

The central locking not working on 2008 Peugeot Expert. The rear doors lock but the driver and passenger doors don't lock. When driving there is a humming noise from the driver's door panel. Any help?

The driver's door normally contains the central locking module and also the solenoid that opens and closes the lock for that door. That doesn't explain why the passenger door also doesn't lock. Also check the fuse, although, it it hums, it is getting power. The only way is to remove the door panel and check.

My 1995 toyota lexen central locking works on all doors except the Driver door any ideas on where i might start looking is a full central lock replacement or just a fuse???

Mine is the opposite... driver's door works, all others are locked and can't be opened, even from inside. Suspect may be something to do with central locking...maybe needs re-booting somehow??

Central locking

turn key twice when opening, ie turn right. once drivers door will unlock, turn twice passengers doors will unlock, and locking is turn anti clock wise once will lock all doors, turn twice will set door dead locks.dead locks will stop openand lock internal button working and handle from opening door. the same actions can be applied to the remote one press drivers door, two press passenger doors, press and hold unlock button for 5 seconds and rear window will open.
