Focus Mk4 Door Locking Problem

Featured Replies

A problem with the door unlocking and locking mechanism has just started. When I try to unlock the car from any door other than the drivers door no response, as the manual suggests I go to the vehicle settings door locks and set it for all doors, switch the engine off and exit the vehicle, I can lock the vehicle from any door. I return the next day and again only the drivers door responds no other door handle works, I check the system and it is still set for "All Doors" I reconfirm this, switch the engine off and again all doors respond to both lock and unlock.

I have tried the manual suggested key fob lock and unlock at the same time press for 4 seconds to alter the operation of the door locking, makes no difference.

Any ideas, would appreciate.



Hi

For some reason mine has started doing the same thing, used to lock/unlock from all doors now from only the drivers door. The only update the cars had was the recall for the (i think) for the beaking system.

Hello,

Contacted local Ford Dealer regarding Particulate Filer warnings that are still popping up, said they would get back to me, that was 3 weeks ago still no response understandable in present situation but no mention of any recall.

I am losing faith in the Ford machine that I once held in high esteem.

Sorry got a little side tracked, I wonder if a reboot would be the solution, in other words disconnect the battery wait a good 30 seconds and reconnect, if problem continues might try.

Does your stop/ start work ?

In my experience, when the battery is not charged fully , the keyless entry can often disable on all but the drivers door. Stop/ start not functioning is also an indication of a not fully charged battery.

Not sure I always disable function on starting the engine, battery at 12.2v so charge is not bad will give a boost charge and test again.

Thanks.

12.2v is low . Many features will be disabled at around this voltage.
