It's always worth cleaning the electrical contacts in the door edge before investigating further/ Finish the cleaning with a light smear of conductive grease, Vaseline.

When that happened on mine it was the locking solenoid. I have a cable twixt door and frame, not contacts.

Thanks for the help. But not sure what part of the door to clean .where are the electrical  contacts  and clean with  what?
Thanks again

I am not familiar with the Broadway. If it is a cable through the hinge side of the door, my suggestion is pointless. Soory.  Keith

This happened to our Malvern - just got “ out of sync” because we opened lock from inside without using key . Sorted it out if lock when inside and open with key . May have to manually put step down a few times …

If you have electrical contacts it would be easy to spot on  the door and frame .as would a twisting wire,

A pair of square shinny sprung buttons and corresponding contacts at the bottom of the habitation door jam.  If the buttons are not moving in and out freely, proper contact may not be made when the door is shut.  Manipulate the buttons with some WD40 if this is the case.

Hi caraman
Did you mean the contacts  at the bottom  of the door. Have  pushed them in and out and wipped  the contacts.  Door now locking.thanks for your advice

Had the same problem with mine, door was out of sync with the remote after I opened it from the inside before unlocking via the button on the front, so in effect over-rode the lock.
I needed to be outside, lock the van with the remote, then re-lock the hab door with the key...

I have just bought an Autosleeper Burford and the habitation door does not lock remotely with the vehicle key. When I took it back to get it checked I was told that Autosleeper no longer connect the door to the vehicle electronics and so disable the autolock feature as it was causing too many problems with the new Mercedes sprinter electrics. I will therefore have to lock the habitation door manually with a key each time. Not very satisfactory on a top of the range model!

The contacts, wiring and solenoid are all there - just not connected.

We have same issue on EB as well. We have found that if we forget to push the lock button on the dashbiard to 'open' before opening a door to go out...it throws the hab door lock out of sequence...so lock doors at night using button on dash.....push it again in morning to unlock everything before stepping out. So far that has cured the hab door lock sequence each time
