Before removing the door panel of the Opel Meriva to check where the issue with the central locking is coming from, check the fuses located in the boot, on the driver's side, in a push-fit side panel. The fuse is #13, and in some versions, it may also be found between the steering column and the driver's door.

If no faults are found in the fuses, you must forcibly open the door panel and check the functionality of the mechanism and the integrity of the wires. The YouTuber finds a severed wire near the speaker.

Once the issue is repaired, the central locking works again, and you can refit the panel. Task completed.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space.
