5 minute central locking switch fix
Race Blue vRS replied to Nikonite's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Just followed your instructions to fit a new switch and it now works! It would only lock and not unlock before. Thanks :) -
Still no success with this - could it be the switch or sensor on the gearbox/lever when selecting reverse? - I've never heard a beep in the cabin when engaging reverse. - All sensors emit the self test click with ignition on and in reverse. - I replaced the control module by passenger side rear wheelwell. - I only get a 2 second flash of the car image on the Stream radio when going from reverse to neutral. Any ideas? Really want to fix it - it's become a mission! Dan

Hi guys, well need your assistance again please with these damn rear parking sensors. Replaced the faulty sensor today and confirmed it clicks when ignition is on and car is in reverse. All 4 now emit the self test clicking. As already mentioned I've replaced the control module too. All I get is when going from reverse to neutral, the image of the car flashes up on the radio for maximum of 2 seconds. I get no beeping at all. Help!

Cheers Mike. I only bought it whilst I'm back home for some medical stuff so I'll be selling in around 6 to 9 months all being well. I like tinkering and it'll be really satisfying to fix the rear sensors. Only other thing is the gear knob needs a new clip as it rotates but I may just put up with that.

Hi Mike, definitely Skoda original factory fit. I replaced the Skoda module today and the image displayed on the radio. The car only cost me 1200 quid and think I got a good deal! It has 17 inch Skoda Pegasus option wheels too. It's all original never had anything modified from new. 94k miles and the 1.6fsi BLF engine so no timing belts for me to worry about.
