Why Can't the Door of Geely Car Be Locked?
2 Answers
Here are the reasons why the door of Geely car cannot be locked: 1. Remote lock failure: If you are using a remote key to lock the door, it is likely that the remote lock is malfunctioning or the antenna of the car's remote transmitter is aging, causing the remote key to not work. In this case, you can use the spare mechanical key to lock the door. 2. Magnetic field interference: Another situation is that there is strong magnetic field signal interference around the car. Since the smart key uses low-intensity radio waves, it cannot work properly under magnetic field interference. 3. Door jammer interference: If the car frequently fails to lock remotely in a certain place, the owner needs to be wary of door jammers. Some criminals use a radio signal jammer that can emit electromagnetic waves of the same frequency as the lock signal, thereby blocking the electronic password of the car's central lock and temporarily disabling it.
My car is also a Geely, and a while ago, the doors wouldn't lock either. It took quite some effort to figure out the reason. Most likely, the door lock module was faulty—if that small chip gets damp or worn out, it can malfunction. Alternatively, the remote key battery might be dead, resulting in a very weak signal reception. Another possibility is wiring issues, such as aging or short-circuited wires in the door gaps, preventing the signal from reaching the lock. I’ve tried cleaning the key battery slot, which occasionally works, but it’s best to check the door frame sensor to see if dirt is blocking the signal. Additionally, a door not fully closed is a common cause, so inspect whether the door frame latch is deformed. Parking in damp areas regularly can cause electronic components to rust, so I recommend having the door lock system checked during routine maintenance to avoid last-minute failures. If the problem persists, don’t push your luck—replace the faulty part promptly to avoid risks, especially when driving at night. Compromising safety isn’t worth it.
