What does this fault code mean?
The lock button on the outer side of the left front door starts a timer when pressed. If the button has been held down for too long, the code is stored, and the car cannot then be locked with the outer lock button. The fault lies in the switch, the button or the wiring.
Possible causes

- The lock button has been held pressed for an unusually long time
- The signal wire has a short to ground

- 2Check that the button returns fully when released and does not stick or appear damaged
- 3With the ignition off, use a multimeter to check that the wire to the button is not connected to ground (the body)
- 4If you have a diagnostic tool: press the button and check that its value in live data changes between activated and inactive
- 5Have a workshop replace the button if it is faulty and the wire is sound
