Check the RCL receiver for poor or corroded connections, they can and do play up sometimes.
Were the batteries properly "load tested"..?? Some batteries can show decent voltage until loaded, then they fail miserably.

Not load tested.. how is that done?
I did try and locate the RCL receiver but couldn’t find it… could you send me a picture of where it is?

Load testing of batteries can be done at any battery retailer.
RCL receiver is above the roof lining near the front interior light.

How can I check battery with no multimeter? Not sure if there is another way to check it.
Thanks for the suggestions tho.
Hopefully somebody will come up with a solution..,
Pain in the proverbial tho as have my tools onboard and can’t get in.
Could you describe this "two turn" method? I've got a 2010 T350, and the side/rear doors only unlock when I get really lucky turning the key a particular way. Main doors unlock fine, but for some reason the others are super touchy.

I posted the method in your other thread

My apologies - this was an earlier post that the admins approved right after you gave me the method! Thanks again
