My 2002 LC100 GXL TD has just developed a problem with the central locking.
It unlocks fine from the remote. BUT, it won't lock from anywhere!
The indicators flash once, as if it has locked, but the relays don't fire.
If I press the remote again, the indicators flash twice and the unlock relays all fire - as per normal.
Also, the key switches on the front doors and the tailgate will unlock everything, but won't lock.
Where do I start looking?

Barry,
Have an 80 series with alarm which operates the remote switching for the central locking. Have had the same problem intermittantly. What I found is that if one door is not quite shut, it would not lock, turns out that it was mainly the rear lift up door. It was strange that our interior light was not staying on to indicate that the door was not shut correctly. However the indicator in the dash was showing that a door was not shut. Did not understand why this dash light come on and not interior light as
well. Just something to look at, when happens look through window at dash and see if this warning light is on. (I imagine that 100 series would have them.) Played with switches, going okay now but for how long?, because I don't now what I really did to fix it.

Thanks Dave,
Yes the 100 has an in-dash indicator, but it is not lit.
Stuffed if I know what's happening.
I guess I'll have to book it in at a Toyota dealer.
