Remote central locking fault

[Steve Q]

Hello all, 

Needing some help regarding my 02 a6 central locking as it stopped working and the alarm was sounding. It has been to the garage and auto electrician who between them have fitted a new drivers door module and repaired the alarm issue. 

However the remote locking isn't working and both the auto electrician and garage don't know why. According to the electrician the keys are talking to the car but the car isn't sending a signal back. The auto electrician believes it to be a faulty module or wiring issue but couldnt get to the bottom of it.  

Does anyone know if there's another module controlling the remote locking or whether it's managed by the ccm?

hi mate did you ever get to the bottom of this issue i have recently just purchased an a6 2.5 non quattro 

i have not had a chance to go right though the car as yet but one of the faults were the central locking needed to open manually with key if there is any hidden modules or relays relating to this would be great to know about

if there other posts answering this apoligys in advance

Is the key battery ok ?

Try this

No I haven't yet. I do believe it's a failing CCM in my case. Especially as the passenger floor got wet a couple of times.

Very nice. Nope 6 speed manual. It certainly is lol. But we have had it from new so it's sentimental. 

Not going to lie not need some cosmetics but whilst she's still doing major road trips I said I wouldn't do the bodywork as guaranteed id have Ito done up then someone would crash into it on a roadtrip. I've got it set up on Instagram and Twitter if you're on there. It has a Facebook page too but I'm still setting that up. I'm off to Germany in less than two weeks to take it back to where it was built 🙂
