I have an issue with the central locking.
When i use the key fob to unlock the car, all doors 'click' but the driver's door doesn't unlock. Similarly locking it, all doors except the driver's lock.
If I unlock the front door with the key, all doors unlock at the same time. However it doesn't disable the alarm so i also have to unlock with the fob to disable it.
Before I drag it to the dealers to look at, any chance it is some kind of special code to click the buttons on the fob in a certain way to reset it? Or is it something 'mechanical'?
Try holding the button on the fob for 2 seconds. Its a safety feature on a lot of cars to stop people jumping in...
It might need a 'recode/reset' thing...when was it last in for a service? Each time the SMax was in for a service, we'd get it back and the windows would all do random things (if you press and hold the unlock button the the remote, the windows should open - ours did but never closed or would open randomly) - the key needed reset/reprogramming on the car - was a 10 minute fix by the garage.
Not been serviced since I've had it (6 months) but entirely possible my wife or daughters have reprogrammed it by accident.
sounds like a dodgy solenoid on the driver side not disengaging the lock.
Had this happen with both of our focus's. adjusted operating rod between handle and lock mechanism, sorted.
