Question for anyone with mk3 Mondeo

    Hi all, I'll ask my question first, then explain it after.
    Can anyone with a mark 3 Mondeo (2001-2007) answer me this simple question. While inside the car does locking/unlocking passenger door activate locks on all other doors?

    I have a problem in that my remote central locking does not work. I can lock and deadlock all doors using key in drivers door but neither of my two remote keys work anymore.
    Also my global opening/closing of windows does not work from key in door anymore either.
    I have changed the batteries in both fobs and got my local mechanic to test them on a machine that detects signal from keys.

    I have done some research online and found that remote locking is controlled by the GEM module. I have since swapped this out for two units sourced from scrappies but my locking has not returned.

    So now I wonder if the passenger door could be the culprit? It does not lock or unlock any other door in my can when tried from inside and I thought it used to work all doors before?

    Any insight or thoughts are welcomed.

    To answer your question I'm 99% sure that locking or unlocking the passenger door from the inside only locks and unlocks that door, not all of them like the drivers one does. My car is getting some engine work done at the moment so is not here for me to check though.

    I just tested it on mine at the passenger door only opens the passenger door and nothing else.

    only the drivers door locks all the other doors. what up with the remote on the key? did you try reprograming them??

    Good morning all,
    thanks for that guys (blows my theory out of the water:rolleyes:). Ah well ay least no I have lane change function thanks to newer GEM:D

    I can put the car into learning mode for keys, but when I press the buttons on fobs I get no confirmation tone from car?

    What else should I try?

    i was sure i needed a confirmation tone when lock button pressed in learning mode! Still though i cannot use remote locking ? Nor can i use global opening/closing by turning key in door. What else might stop remote system from working?
