Hi,
battery ran flat while the car was dead locked. I have had the RAC over and they managed to open the tail gate so that I could clamber in however the doors remain locked and the milage display is reading key code lockout...

I got the bonnet open and replaced the battery with a brand new one.

however all the information says that the doors must be unlocked.

Any thoughts?

Hi,
I have used the EKA code before however this time the dash light does not flash fast to show its ready for the code...

The other issue is that the turning the the key will not unlock the car anymore

I am currently sitting it out to let the eka lockout timeout...

you may have a door lock problem, a bar come off inside and that is a pain in the arse, you may have to get your door card off.
