SOURCE: CENTRAL LOCKING ON 99 T REG FORD ESCORT

Some of the Escorts do not have central locking. If the keys open both front doors, the hatch and fit the ignition then I would not worry too much about it. You may find that you also have a hatch release catch at the side of the drivers seat also. I trust this information helps you.

You could remove the fuses 1 at a time and check them. The one you're looking for will be at least 15 amps. As far as the owner's manual not corresponding to what's in your car, perhaps the car was originally manufactured for a foreign market and you are in posession of a U.S. owners manual.

SOURCE: I need a fuse diagram/layout

Here's a solution that will help in the future. If you look at the fuse(s) they have two small exposed metal tabs. You can get a $5.00 test light and ground it. turn the key on and probe each tab. That's what they're there for. As I said, with the key on, probe each side of the fuse in the fuse block. Both tabs on each fuse should light the light. That means there's current passing through it. If only one side lights it then the fuse is blown and current isn't passing through it to operate accessory. I hope that helps. If so, please rate my assistance and leave a testimonial. Thanks for using Fixya.

2007 Ford Transit Connect Van. The central locking has stopped working on the fob. I have changed the fob battery and still not working. Does it have a fuse/relay that could be broken?

There is only one fuse that mentions 'Locking', but also refers to the General Electrical Module (GEM). If you change the fob battery, you need to reprogram it to the vehicle. Or you could open any Transit around you. Lots of help below including resetting..

Toyota corolla verso 2007 . the central locking has stopped working

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.

Central locking fuse for ford focus

The fuse panel is located to the lower left of the steering wheel. Remove the 2 hex screws holding it in place and turn it around. The fuse (63) is somewhat hidden behind a wiring harness. Replace the fuse and try the locks. If they work your are good, if it blows again you have to find the location of the shortage, thats where I'm stuck :(
