Done a couple of locks/latches in the past Ian, long time ago though! Sounds like there is some restriction preventing the rear door unlocking completely or perhaps some grit or similar has got into the latch so it returns to the locked position.stanker wrote:Yes Dave, that's the one, I had to have it, it's got a personalised number plate, well!, personalised to me, according to my neighbours.scoobyh123 wrote:Was that the gold 820 SLi Ian?

One of the rear passenger doors keeps locking itself, have you ever stripped a lock before?

I'd start by taking the door card off (carefully, i think there's a couple of hidden screws on the back one) and see if you can find any obstructions etc around the rods that operate it. The answer might be obvious when you get the door card off though.
I might have a spare rear door lock, is it left or right door?
Can't remember where i saw it but there's something odd about making sure you fit the brake pedal switch from the donor vehicle as well - you've not overlooked that have you Dusan?Alucard7002 wrote:Never did get the 420 cruise working, all wired up and no luck.
I had kv6 825 cruise as well which is identical part numbers on the ECU
I will say that in both cases of the donor systems neither were confirmed working before I started but the likelyhood of both being dead is slim to none.
I think either the speed signal is out of range or there was something I missed in the wiring. I dont have to time or apace at the moment to play around with anything but next time I have a crack at it I'll let you know
Love the non airbag dash on the coupe, after having the 827 with one going back into the 820 is annoying ! That shelf is so useful, usually my wallet from my back pocket goes there rather than sitting on it for a long journey.
I'm sure there's something else silly that would prevent it working as well, when i remember it i'll let you know.
