Re: E28 Locks

Scott:

The subject of E28 door lock problems came up on the bmwuucdigest
recently, and one poster (Chris Pawlowicz) provided a pointer
to an excellent paper he wrote on E28 central locking.  Go to either:

ftp://ftp.doe.carleton.ca/pub/chrisp/bmw/central.lock.faq

or

ftp://ftp.doe.carleton.ca/pub/chrisp/bmw/central.lock.pdf

Hope this helps.
