Power door locks stopped working on grand vitara

It would surprise me if the car didn't require a chip in the key being a 2006 model, the reason it works on the door is because the door lock doesn't have the chip reading equipment which is fitted to the ignition system, it relies purely on the lock tumbler, the key will fit in and turn the ignition but the car won't start

did you follow the books steps carefully
and read the rules on key counts
the book , operators guide tells all this, rules and DIY key learning,

faulty ground

if the unit re-inits power it locks the door

you could also have a faulty battery that voltage has a low 11 or 10,5 v

so will start up and run just one cell has died

if this isnt the case then its some sort of ground leakage of the supply to the alarm triggered central clocking relay feed {from alarm to doors ..
i suspect a ground with rust

Remote can be matched manually

have you had the battery checked for holding charge ? has alternator had charge rate checked ? 13-14 volts is recommended,if these ok and still have all these symptoms get the ECU checked,hope this helps

don't have 2 fobs?
it cam with 2,
and the battery must be good.(for buttons to work on fob)
never run any car with only 1 fob or one key.
or get locked out.
are you saying the metal cut key end (pure mechanical ) failed?

my car has a real key with a a transponder inside .
it can open 2 ways, the keyfob buttons, (takes a good battery)
and the key metal end.

get a spare fob and program it.

now you have 2 like you should.

If that pull the fuse test does the same thing again, then you have a lock button that is stuck down or shorted. It's as if somebody is holding the button down constantly. Thats why it locks when you put the fuse in, then gets ignored when the signal doesnt go away.

Hi.
There is no way of changing 2 press into 1 press. For unlocking all doors - press the remote 2 times.

xl-7 programming instructions first you need to stuff your head up under the dash and locate your module drivers side upper corner under dash does it say programmable transmitter (the first models had no programable modules) if it says that then......
1 confirm all doors are shut and key is out of ignition
2 open drivers door insert key and turn to on within 10 sec
3 turn ignition switch to off in 10 sec
4 push and release drivers door switch 3 times in 20 sec
5 turn ign. switch to on in 10 sec
6 turn ign. switch to off in 10 sec
7 press and hold lock and unlock button on transmitter for 5 sec within 20 sec of step 6 alldoors will lock/unlockto confirm correct process
8 press lock unlock buttons on second remote within 5 sec after step 7 once again all doors will lock/unlock to confirm
9 to add another remote up to a max of four repeat steps 1 through 8 this was taken directly out of an owners manual supplement that comes with a new keyless entry kit (part number for a xl-7 or grand vitara can't remember which one it goes to but it works on either one is 84900-67810) which you would have to purchase if yours is not programable these instructions are the same for vitara, grand vitara, xl-7 and the esteem hope this helps
