Ive been told my door locks are faulty,they sound like machine guns when operating .Also the car was running fine,until I tried the central locking and that triggered the alarm system Ive managed to source two locks after a lot of searching.I noticed all the ones for sale ,had a different wiring set up ,finally a dealer had a pair and said they were the early type and quite rare Once ive fitted them,is there any procedure,before I reconnect the battery I can`t reset the EKA code as I dont have the number So when I feel up to it, I`ll fit them . I was involved in an accident on the M6,when a 25 ton lorry hit our car .Since he was unable to see me in his mirrors ,he though I`d gone up the junction slip road and pulled onto the inner lane writing our car off.It has really shaken my wife and myself up and physically knocked me about .Although he car war written off ,it was still drivable for us to finish our journey Also we weer very lucky as the car went out of control across the three lanes until I regained control and got it onto the hard shoulder Len

Ive sourced a pair of door locks Mine is an early MG F so slightly different from later locks However Ive fitted the replacement locks in and they click oping and closing,very cleanly no chattering But the alarm light it still on and the engine turn over ,after a short while the alarm light dims and starts flashing on and off ,if this means anything Any help is very welcome Len
