What is your smartlock light doing?

Is it flashing fast or normal?

Does it go out when you turn the key to reds?

Does your interior light work?

While holding the key to start, bump the dash firmly just above the handbrake?

Cheers,
Tim

Going to answer my questions?

The bem won't be the problem... If anything is acting up it'll be the smartlock module...they don't get a hot joint, the common problem is one of the relays fail on the board...

Cheers,
Tim

Smartlock is a seperate module in the EB/ED, not part of the BCM, unlike the EF/EL.
