Mini cooper driver door wont lock.
Well if you are an automotive technician it could be an easy 1 2 3 process to identify the problem remove the door panel and make the adjustment.
The boot will lock and unlock but both passanger and drivers door wont.
The handle catch cable has come off therefore the door can t be opened from inside the car.
After the third press release both buttons and the doors should lock and then unlock.
Any suggestions for this.
You have a defective door handle catch.
With the actuator in position start threading one of the three torx screws that hold it to the door.
This will hold it in place enough while you reconnect the exterior handle cable.
Peel out the rubber which holds the door lock from the door panel.
While holding the unlock button press and release the lock centre mini logo button 3 times within 10 seconds.
Use the key to get into your car.
Mini cooper central locking locks doors but wont open.
Mini cooper central locking locks doors but wont open.
If you can t unlock the car with the remote then sit in the driver s seat and close the door.
Use the toggle switch to lock your car doors.
Mini cooper 2004 have the key fob reprogrammed by the dealer first and see if that fixes the issue.
Fold the rubber grommet which is located on the left top side of the door panel then push it into the inside of the hole in order to put the cable to the inside of the door panel.
If doing the driver side door you will also need to position the key lock rod into place for the star end to slide into its place in the actuator.
