Failsafe after new lock
 
Weird thing..

I changed this week the driversdoor-lockmechanism. Took the X for a spin and the three amigos lit up and motor got in safe mode :confused:

Pulled aside the road, turned the ignition off, locked the car, unlocked and started --> safemode still active. I repeated lock, unlock and start... and everything was back to normal.....

No issues again.

Is this normal when changing out electrical components when the battery is not disconnected?

(yes i searched.. :thumbup:)

This is really weird. However, generally, negative pole of the battery need to be disconnected whenever electrical-related practices take place.

Sorry for not helping you much!

Tnx for the input.

When i unplugged and took out the Climate control unit no electrical problems occured after cleaning and put back in the dash. I never expected a failsafe when changing a lock. I was surprised, very.....
Ah well never to old to learn
