Doors not locking

[JackieR]

My Jaguar estate xf has a problem. Doors stopped locking however key fobs were seen as engine started. Battery  was replaced as low voltage but the doors still won’t lock. All the quick fixes have been tried.

Any suggestions and help would be appreciated

Have you told the car it has had a new battery fitted?

Also have you tried locking the doors with the key and/or manually inside the car?

Hi Jackie

Sounds like you have a similar problem to one I had during lockdown. I let the battery completely discharge through lack of use. When AA got it started all OK except both rear doors remained locked and would not open. Mine was sorted under warranty but I understand a garage with the Autologic software can sort it quickly.

I think the problem is that low voltage corrupts the software in one of the many computer modules so it needs re-coding.

I have heard that these guys could help: https://www.eandeservices.co.uk/ They are in Luton but might be worth a call...

Good luck
