Hi The hatchback on my Micra SX K12 ( Keyless remote system)keeps unlocking on it's own whilst out and about. The lock appears to be working OK and the car has a nearly new battery. Any ideas please? Thank you. Ninjaman.fwn
 
Hatchback unlocks/opens going along - lock fault

In the absence of any ideas I ended up in the garage. Apparently this is a common fault with Micra's, in fact a whole range of vehicles were recalled in order to fix the problem. The fault lies with the lock mechanism and is only resolved by replacement. If your vehicle has this problem then check if your VIN is included in the recall. Sod's law in my case and it didn't qualify as the VIN was outside those recalled - even though the fault was identical! grr I had my lock replaced and luckily it was covered under the extended warranty that I bought with the car.:laugh:
So now you know.............
 
Glad your problem is resolved & thanks for the solution. Luckily it wasnt the bonnet opening up :)
 
I never knew that. Youd expect something like Honest Johns database to have it listed hence unable to advise but cheers.
