Corsa remote central locking problem?

have just bought a 52 Reg Vauxhall Corsa SXi (5 door). The remote central locking was working fine the day I bought it, but then my boyfriend used the key in the door instead of the remote.

since then I'm having a bit of a problem...

What it should do:

Press the unlock button once/ Use key in door (turn it towards front of car once)- driver door opens

Press the unlock button twice/ Use key in door (turn it towards front of car twice), all doors open


What it's doing:

Pressing the unlock button once- all doors are opening. This is the same when using the key in the actual door lock too.

Does anyone have any advice how I can fix this?

Thanks in advance!

does anyone know about the central locking working from the inside of the car i am told you cant pull up lock on drivers side and it opens all the doors.

hoW eazy is it to change the motor in the door.as only the drivers door will open with the key remote.

I have a corsa c which had the same problem and still being in warrenty i took it to vauxhall to check it and after they said they'd get back to me to find the fault i noticed it was a fuse that had blown now it works fine with the fob

Thanks for your help so far guys... It was definitely press button once, only driver door opens when I got it so it's mainly annoying me because I know it worked once!

i,m buyin a 04 plate corsa, when you press the unlock button the all the doors and boot open. i thot that just the drivers door was ment to open first then you would have to press it again to open the rest of the doors but the guy in the garage said some corsa dont have the anti-theft/hijack system. maybe theres a way of disabling it and reanabling it. when i get my car im gona see what i can do and maybe speak to vauxhall them self.

I'm currently having a problem (seems to be related to my new stereo, god knows how a stereo controls the door locks :P ), whenever my new stereo is plugged in the drivers door seems to randomly unlock itself. Are you sure that when you unlock it, it is actually unlocking all four doors and that the drivers door is not unlocked already (therefore, the first stage of the unlocking has already completed, as when you press the remote once it is actually carrying out the second stage of unlocking the rest of the doors). I haven't found a reason/explanation for this yet, and I know its a long shot for you, but by chance it could be something similar? Anyone one here know if central locking systems are common problems on these Corsa's?

Hope that helps.
