Central locking button?
No such thing on my Mk. I, and it definitely has Central Locking.
This is a car with the BSI...
Pre-BSI models wuld have the central locking controller behind the panel on the side behind the driver's seat.
I would never trust a Haynes wiring diagram further than I can throw the book, and frankly... I throw like a little girl...
(They take apart a limited number of cars when they write the book, and never ever manage to get all variations in the electrics)
Most systems with keyed actuation have 4 or more wires on any actuators mounted on doorlocks where this functionality is expected to be used. (2-wire actuators are usually slave units for rear doors and such)
It may be possible that the central uses the actuator like a small generator, to produce a voltage spike when it's moved because a key is turned in the lock.
Now, I can't imagine that Citroën fitted a 'wireless remote only' system, and if there's no Central Locking, then what are the wires for?
