e36 328i 1995 central locking failure

[Abu328gp]

Hi guys... been searching for a while now and cant seem to find a fix....

My central locking just stopped working. i can only open the drivers door with the key and none of the other doors open. cant even open from inside the car. I have checked the fuses and they are fine. the alarm works with the key... can switch on and off but the doors dont lock and unlock....

i have on a few occasions opened the door with the key without pressing the unlock switch to deactivate the alarm.... the indicators flash and the car wont start till you deactivate the alarm... but there is NO sound emitting when the alarm triggers....

Guys please..... i really need to fix this one.

Oh and another problem i cant put my finger on is that the car tends to stall or loose revs when releasing the clutch on take off in forst gear... does it quiet often and is becoming a o pain.... i have to keep over reving the car to nmake sure it dont cut off.....

car idles perfect... checked fuel pump pressure.... and the car drives perfect other than that.... any ideas???

Not sure about your CL, will sleep on it as there is somthing ticking away at the back of my mind about that.
As for your cutting out thing, check the rubber between the air flow meter and the throttle body. I had a crack in mine once on a 530i and when I floored it in first I had exactly the same symptom.
