CENTRAL LOCKING / NOT WORKING

When the door lock is operated with the mechanical key or from inside, via the safety catch, the central locking system does not work.

The door open/close command is received by the body computer node via the B-CAN network The Node sends the signal received to the door nodes and the boot compartment node (if present), which open/close the side doors and control boot closure directly.
