Hi all. I recently purchased a 1999 Jimny. Great little car but 1 problem. The central locking locks the door seconds after closing the door. RAC already been called out to retrieve the keys :)
Question is, is there anyway to disable the central locking or am I going to have to tape a spare key somewhere secret?
Cheers

I will take a bet with you - your "new-to-you" Jimny is fitted with an aftermarket alarm system - and that is what is locking the doors.

I think you are right Fordem. Had a closer look today and it looks to be an aftermarket system. That will be getting ripped out quick. Cheers
