What the record shows
On a working van, remote central locking is security as much as convenience: every door locked by hand is a door that can be missed.
Background: remote keys for vans
The points below are general information about this kind of job. They explain the work; they are not additional details about this particular vehicle.
Remote functions are programmed separately from the immobiliser on many vehicles, so a key can start a van but not lock it. The fix is to programme a remote the vehicle accepts.
Not recorded
To keep this record accurate, the following are not published because neither the original post nor Autobahn’s job notes state them: the van’s year.
