Got locked IN the vehicle with convenience key.
As unbelievable as it may sound I managed to fully lock myself in my S3 tonight.
Car is just back from warranty repair and service but they must have reset the lock codes as my usual key wouldn’t unlock. So tonight i planned to sort this out. I unlocked it using the physical non working key got it and shut the door. Tried holding the key up to the sensor pushed the start button etc but nothing happens. I was just about to grab the manual when the doors all auto locked.
OK I’ll just open the door. Nope. Alarm now going off. Press the door unlock button on the door handle. Nope. Erm.. push more buttons anything please open! Nope nope nope. Keep really still and take deep breaths. nope alarm still going. Phone the wife who sent sister-in-law out with spare key (the one that went to the garage) and managed to free me.
So beware everyone if your key is acting up and you’re trying to work out why don’t shut the door.
