1 Answers
The solutions for a car that won't lock are: 1. Check if the doors, trunk, and hood are properly closed; 2. Inspect each lock mechanism and control circuit for any open or short circuits; 3. Replace the door lock mechanism, lock actuator, or central control motor. The reasons why a car won't lock include: 1. Remote lock malfunction or aging antenna of the car's remote transmitter rendering the remote key ineffective; 2. Faults in the door lock mechanism, lock actuator, or central control circuit; 3. Strong magnetic field interference around the car preventing the remote key from functioning properly; 4. Rust causing increased resistance in the locking mechanism.
