doors won't lock

Post by tonym850 »

My 1994 850 refuses to let me lock the doors. recently the fuel door lock jammed and i broke the tab off so I could get the fuel door to open, since that time I have not been able to lock any doors. :roll: any ideals on what may be the source, have check the fuse it is fine.

Central locking motor, but in the event of the fuel filler flap problem occuring again - open the boot adn remove the piece of trim on the right hand side. A thin piece of wire will be visible which is the manual release switch for the filler cap. Pull that and it will open. A bit late now, but at least you'll know next time!
