Inside Automatic Door Locks Dont Work Subaru Legacy

I verified the presence of voltage at that location and the fuse is good.

Inside automatic door locks dont work subaru legacy.

Oddly they ll normally do it when the car is sitting with no key in it. They keep potential thieves and burglars out of your car and make it easy for you to lock and unlock your doors in a hurry. As a result power door locks that don t work are a little unnerving as they spell an increased security threat for your vehicle. The locks should work.

Open the driver side door and lock the car with the lock switch on the door. A 10mm bolt present here holds it in position. In older subaru s it s caused by a defective door lock timer a common issue they ll randomly lock and unlock. The door switch could be the culprit too when i locked my forester 8 240 000 mi the passenger door lock somewhat shuddered as i locked it with the power lock.

Most cars don t lock the doors until the shift is moved to drive and most unlock the doors when the car is re placed in park. Every other car i have owned has instructions in the owners manual on how to do. Why would there be a relationship between the clock interior lights and door locks. I know the locks have their own 20a fuse in the panel under the dash i believe it is number 11.

This subaru does the latter but not the former. To begin with if the door lock cylinder is pushing into the door most likely the bolt which holds it in place is loose or the cylinder needs to be replaced. My review of the owners manual does not show any way to turn off the automatic door locks.
