CENTRAL LOCKING, ON BOARD DIAGNOSIS (OBD)

The central locking system works using the electric motor principle.

The locking units (door locks) located in the doors are equipped with electric motors. 

After receiving a "lock" command from an external source (door lock, radio wave remote control) the doors are 
locked, the anti-theft system is activated. If necessary, the sliding/tilting sunroof is closed. The feedback 
message for the relevant control unit is via the contact switch in the lock unit. 

The electrical central locking system can operate all the known convenience functions, that is, control of interior 
lights, anti-theft alarm with interior monitoring, electric windows and mirrors as well as radio wave remote 
control. 

If an airbag is triggered this automatically sends a signal to the central locking control unit which unlocks the 
doors and switches on the interior lights. 

The control unit for the central locking control unit -J393- is located under the instrument panel and is secured 
to the steering column by a bracket. It is equipped with a DTC memory. The On Board Diagnosis (OBD) 
connection is located beneath the cover under the steering wheel.
