Hi all ive had a nosey on here but cant seem to find the information im looking for or advice, the central locking has been gone on the car since i bought it and now im looking to sort it out, to look the car i got to lean over inside and lock the passenger door by hand then lock the drivers side outside the car with the key then i press the lock button on key, the key lights up red and opens the boot and locks but no joy on the car locking and unlocking the doors then to open i got to put the key in so like a manualy way of doing it any ideas or wisdom????

I have had the exact same issue - you will need to get a set of actuators/door locking mechanisms from one of the breakers on the forum like BigPete to fix the issue ...

If you sit in the car and press keyfob to lock doors do the door lock switches twitch?
If so then above is definately correct resolution.
