2007 Nuevo habitation door

Habitation door is normally operated by the remote button on the large key. Since it stopped operating remotely we have had to lock and unlock manually using the small key. The same one as used for water etc.

Thanks for clarifying.  
Have you checked that your contacts are aligned?

Thanks. Not confused anymore. Different to my 2006 model

It is the first year that cab air con was fitted...anyway they have turned face and now looking at a 2009 ES for the same price and lower mileage with even more updates than our humble 2004!

I'd substitute 'humble 2004' with 'superior 2004'! We've been trawling the dealers looking for a newer Nuevo and I have to say we've been underwhelmed. What 'updates' we saw were of questionable worth to say the least. Most were just added complications, which seem to go wrong and have been well documented here.
We'll be sticking with what we have and putting the 15k saved towards more continental trips..
Sorry for going off topic, but the word 'humble' got me going...

Hi, as promised , culprit found. Stripped down contacts on door first - easiest and most likely, all ok. Next did the door FRAME side - both wires unattached. Very fiddly job, involves 2 sizes of magnetic screwdriver, tweezers and a mouth held torch.

Well done. Thanks for the feedback.

Get a head torch for next time. It saves the false teeth dropping out!!!

I have a head torch which I first purchased for late evening dog walks, with one beardie lead in each hand a third hand was needed to hold a torch and a fourth to wield a poo bag, if required. With head torch problem resolved. It has proved itself useful in all sorts of situations since. The only issue is I chose a wind-up rechargeable type which, as Mr Sod's Law suggests, always runs out of power at a critical moment, resulting in frantic dismantling and crazed winding.
