Very weird thing just happened to me,
I drove the car to work with the roof down this morning and all was well. The car has sat outside since about 9am this morning, a friend and i went out to look at the car and go for a quick spin about 13:30 and when i unlocked the car only the driver side door would unlock despite pressing both the key fob and the button inside the car that unlocks / locks the doors and boot.
Then when i pushed the roof down button, nothing happened, no little LED, no motor noise absolutely nothing!
So, we went for a drive for about 15 mins. Returned. Locked the car, all doors locked fine and then all unlocked again when i used the key fob. Hopped in and tried the roof (ignition on position 1), all went down instantly complete with LEDs etc and came back up again fine. Locked car with fob, all locked ok.
This all seems a bit weird, is the central locking and roof on the same fuse..? Is it possible the battery had a low voltage so wouldn't do more than was asked but after the drive it had a little more charge in it..? Or isn it simply the case that my car has a little gremlin hidden inside that needs to be tempted out with a tidbits of oreo cookie dipped in milk..?
All thoughts / theories (conspiracy or otherwise) welcome
