Evening all,

Family member has a 2003 1.6 Match with an odd fault, any thoughts please;

On unlocking the car, opening the door & getting in unless you start the car within 15-20 seconds the door often re-locks and the alarm goes off. Having known the car for 10 years and having had a MK5 myself I thought the car would only re-lock if you unlocked but didn't open the door?

All the internal lights including the boot one appear to be functioning correctly. Any thoughts please?

Many thanks

acme
