Peugeot partner vans

Post by Jpro747 »

Evening all,

Bit of a random question... does anyone know how to keep the back door from locking itself everytime you drive off on Peugeot partner vans?

Was out on a rural yesterday and found it really annoying having to unlock it everytime i stopped. I tried pressing the key button just above the gearstick but it still locks when i drive off. We only have 1 of these vans in our office and i found it was the best van i've ever driven, very spacious too... but annoying security features!

Unscrew the panel off the back of the door and cut the electrical wire to the lock. It's the only way :chuckle

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Damn fine van in my opinion, roomy and with a bit of poke for pulling into traffic. Locking of van is an excellent security feature .

They are comfortable, but for cheer chuckability around country B road bends @ 60 mph I prefer driving the Vauxhall combo.

You can't do B roads (or A roads unless they're dual carriageways) @ 60 mph in the Partner :thumbup
I am no longer a number :-)

But he is on a "on a rural" so probably no "set of lights". :Very Happy
