Nissan Multi Keyless Entry Failure
Summary of the thread
The keyless entry system on a 2000 Nissan Multi stopped working, and an error code indicated a locking system malfunction. The issue was suspected to be related to a cable or plug problem in the door, as fuses were intact. Suggestions included checking for intermittent connections by wiggling wires near the door hinge. Ultimately, the problem was identified as a corroded connector in the door wiring, which was resolved by a local garage.

Good shout on wiggling the wires, hadn't thought of that! The error code is annoyingly vague, just says something like 'locking system malfunction.' If wiggling doesn't work, does anyone have a wiring diagram for the door locking system on these? Is there a known common location where these wires tend to break?

A generic locking system error is never fun. If wiggling doesn't help and the code is vague, you might be chasing your tail. Given the age of the car, a corroded connector or broken wire is highly likely. Going to a workshop could save time and frustration.

Took it to a local garage and it was a corroded connector in the door wiring. Total bill came to 95€ to replace the plug and repair a broken wire. Annoying, but glad it's sorted!

Door handle electronics faults can be a pain! Does the error code point to a specific sensor or module, or is it more generic, like a communication error? Have you tried wiggling the wires near the door hinge while trying the keyless entry to see if there's any intermittent connection?
