Hello all I have just bought my son a 94 pajero when we bought the car the central locking didnt work so when we got the car
home we checked the fuse box and there was no fuse in place so we fitted the correct size fuse and bingo it worked it had been working fine for 2 days and all of a sudden I unlocked the passengers door with the key(this central locking isnt keyless entry)and it went crazy locking and unlocking a million mile an hour if I push the door button down its ok but when you lift the button it goes crazy again can anyone out there give me an idea
where to start looking for this problem before I go and see an auto electrician thanks in advance cheers Scott.

I HATE central locking faults!
My drivers door solinoid won't work now days and I've spent bloody hours and hours and hours messing around with it and still can't work it out!!
I would think by the sounds of it, it is either a fault in the door controller itself or more likley a bad earth somewhere. As to exactly where....... who knows! Sorry, can't help you much on specifics!
Does it have an aftermarket imobiliser? If so, crack open the dash and have a look where they have cut into the ignition and or factory central locking looms, a lot of these installers as extremely dodgy and it may be a bad solder (or twisted connection!) in there somewhere.

not sure of the set up of the pajero but i have come across the problem where the arm that comes off the main actuator has moved up/down a little on the rod that opens the door lock so when you lock/unlock it gets confused because its not quite off/on if you know what i mean
cheers

I had the same problem with a commodore years ago, one day the c/locking started doing the same thing and I was stuck in the car and could not get out, I was just about to climb out the window when it stoped. It turned out to be in the passenger door lock It would get stuck between lock & unlock and would tell the system to unlock then lock itself becuase one lock was in the wrong position.

thanks crewser
mine could be in the passanger door as it seems like thats where the problem could have started from. when I get to the bottom of it I will post the outcome cheers Crewser.
