I hate them.:banghead:

Just got round to checking my R/P/S doorlock. It's been unlocking just great, but never locking again with the others. What a STUPID design!!

Tell me, are there any better aftermarket systems out there? I've just disconnected the rear doors from the system for now..at least I can lock and run.

In theory the other locks may be a little more powerful with half the load in the circuit too..:)

Does anyone have any experience of fitting a Maplin solenoid? Can it be installed in a Maestro door easily? Any wiring problems?
