    Keyless entry broken- clicking sound?

    The wiring appears to be good, and the fuse in the circuit is good as well. It is an "access2communications" board. Is this clicking sound showing that the board is working and power just isnt getting to the locks? For some reason the driver side door wont lock through the push thing on the door now unless you really press it as wellhttps://vimeo.com/171133103

    It's only bothering me because the driver side door doesnt open with the key!!

    There is a relay missing. It kinda looks like there never was one. Do I need this? Can't figure it out with the bentley.

      Interior light relay is next to the central locking unit. Sounds like the drivers side actuator took a dump which is why it's not working with the keyless and it's harder to lock/unlock manually.

        So it doesnt matter that there is no relay there for this specific issue? I'm about to do the black/red wire repair thing.

        There is no relay click from the control unit though- from research that could mean it's shot?

          Are you saying none of the locks work or just the drivers side? If none are working, then check the connections to the central locking unit as well as the unit itself.

            I just got the car to lock by doing the loop, but then the car unlocks itself right after. Like lock- unlock. Lock it again, it unlocks itself right after again

            LOL it was because the doors were open! Problem solved by the loop!!
