A Couple Of Questions

[Alan Partridge]

Hi

On my 94 LS400 the remote central locking isn't great. I put it down to the batteries in the remote but I've changed them and still the remote is poor. Does anyone have any idea why this could be?

Also I have noticed that my fm radio reception is very poor. Is there a booster or something for the ariel? How do you remove the stereo to check the connections?

Thanks

The range isn't that great on those models. You might try aiming via the driver's door glass or windscreen towards the dash. Is your aerial dirty? If it is, try cleaning it with metal polish when it's up, and see if that makes a difference.

HTH.

I've tried aiming it at that area but it's still hit and miss. You have to stand right next to the car and often it doesn't work first time.

As far as I know and can see the ariel is clean, I'll check it when I get home later.

Thanks :)

Is your glass heavily tinted?

The car is totally standard with no tints at all
