Vito 120 Sliding Door Lock

[spacemanjg]

I could be being extremely thick here:-

1) Unlock with remote
2) All doors unlock – knobs pop up
3) I can open all doors except both sliding doors
4) External sliding door handles act as if locked
5) Open sliders from inside, close again, then external handles work fine (until the vehicle is locked again)

Any ideas please? It’s like child locks in reverse!

Try cleaning the electric pins and plates on the rear of the sliding doors, if they are dirty the doors are not unlocking so they will only unlock when the inside handles are used.

Yes I think something is wrong. If the knobs are up then the doors should open (from the outside). If both doors are exactly the same it's less likely to be dirty contacts ... but no idea offhand what the issue could be!
