Car doors wont lock with remote

Sounds like the rod that goes from the lock to the key came off. There is usually a little plastic clip that holds it together and they break and you get what you are experiencing. You have to take the inside panel off of the door to get inside it.

Hi, I am trying to manually unlock my Peugeot 406 but the key just spins in the lock. I've tried the other door but it is really stiff and will not unlock. Is there a simple solution?

They ise an anti theft system where the wrong key just spins, use a good maintenence spray (not WD40, it dries up too quick) 3in1 and duckhams duck oil are good, oil both locks and gently work them and hopfully you will be in!
