   did u buy the same fob and reciever or a fob from one place and reciever from another?
   if the latter will need reprogramming from shitreon at a pretty cost.
   if they are from the same should just need reprogramming to each other by unlocking via key then pushing lock button twice.
   but to be honest i had problem with mine by the time shitreon gave me final price i was able to get a clifford alarm brought and fitted for £50 extra. worth a thought

   i brought the receiver/latter and fob from some one off here,off the same car.i tried that and it didnt work. thing is though the central locking dont work from the driverside,would that have anything to do with why it wont work?

   You will need it programmed by Citroen buddy. It's £40 for the 2 button remote, I'm guessing it will be no different for the 1 button remote.

   the drivers door would cause it to click (the sound of all the other doors locking) and then another click(the sound of them all opening) this is because of the drivers door(master) not working but if it does not do this then it is nothing to do with the drivers door central locking not working
