They just clear the trouble code that sometimes locks out keyless handles with planet/diagbox

 

Cheers Windy1603..

So presumably I could get do the same.. I take it I could also change things like the alarm sensitivity, etc with diagbox?

Anyone have any recommendations as I've seen loads on ebay and I've read that some are rather better than others?

 

I disconnect my battery for 8 hours (and charge it in the meantime) and it works after I reconnect battery. Have done this 3-4 times.

 

Thank you for this advice. I did the same (charge tha battery first and then disconnect and reconnect it) and now sensors on both front doors works again.

Is it possible that weak battery cause such problem. Now my car is 7 years old and still has first battery. In the past cold weather and rain caused front sensor occasionally not working, but in the last winter they stopped working at all.

But now they work. Obviously I'll have to buy new battery in the near future.

 

And just like that they have come back to life!

 

They do sometimes, damp/wet appears to be main issue. I wipe mine weekly and also spray a little silicone spray into the handle to door gap every so often to keep damp out and other than when they were covered in snow the other week they are now reliable

 

I think this car should have a "battery disconnect" button on centre console

 

Could be done, but now devise a means of reconnecting with no battery power available :notsure:
