Hit the unlock button twice. most fobs are programmed so you hit it once, drivers unlocks, and again for all the rest.

2009 Expert. remote fob not working. The central locking will not work with the key, only the drivers door locks. Worried because I'll have to leave the van open over night.

Try replacing the FOB battery. Check the fuse for door locks. usually located in the engine bay fuse box. Temporarily you can lock the other doors from inside the van and lock the driver door last using the key. Another possibility is that the locking switch in the driver door is faulty or the central locking motor is. All other doors will only lock if the driver door locking system works. When you lock the driver door, the locking motor will hit a switch that will lock the other doors.

Skoda ovtavia fob only opens drivers door

Check your car setup. Read the manual on MAXI DOT and look for Main Menu > Settings > Comfort > Central Locking. Within the Comfort menu you can also reset to factory which should set central locking to automatic.
I hope this helps.

Doors do not centrally lock with fob or key (they close but open straight away). Onlu option is lock drivers side with key and then lock the other 3 doors manuually. Ford Fiesta Mark 6 in the UK

1- get in drivers seat close doors and lock by hand
,
2- then put key in ignition and turn key till dash lights come on (do not start)

3- while key in ignition unlock doors with fob ,

4 - then lock again with fob while key in ignition.

5- then remove key exit car try locking doors from out side this should reset all your door locks

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.
