Remote locking for a BA ute.

Martin4car

My utility vehicle is experiencing a malfunction with the remote door locking system. Depress the remote to engage the locking mechanism of the doors, but it promptly disengages.
I have replaced both actuators, but there have been no improvements. Is there a relay present that might potentially lead to a problem?

It is more probable that the snipper rod is twisted (and the doors have been damaged in an accident) or that the snipper button surround on the door sill below the window is misaligned. If any resistances arise from these concerns, they will be interpreted as the door open button being pushed, resulting in the unlocking of the doors.

I appreciate your response. I will examine the information and assess the outcome.

Examined the snipper rod and found no obstructions or restrictions.
Additionally, I have the capability to secure both doors from inside the vehicle by using the door lock button located on the console.
In addition, I am able to secure the driver's door with the key, but the passenger door does not respond to the locking mechanism.

In regards to my BA ute that does not lock.
Is it possible for me to encounter an issue with the Body Control Module (BCM)?
Has anybody investigated the Body Control Module (BCM) for repairs, such as a malfunctioning relay?
Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Perhaps. It is normal for the solder pads on the relay feet/pins to have dry joints. Therefore, it is advisable to open up the relay and gently move the top part while inspecting the solder pad on the opposite side. Similarly, the same applies to the connections on the printed circuit board (PCB) where all the wires are inserted. To ensure safety, it is advisable to reposition the pads on the solder side for all relay pins and connection pins in the BCM. Additionally, inspect the wiring in close proximity to the door hinge located behind the kick panel.
