New car battery cured my central locking (1992 9000CS) which had been quirky for some time. It would frequently unlock then immediately lock again. Sometimes, after four or five attempts it would only unlock properly by using the door key. Eventually the battery went completely and was replaced. You could say that the central locking was an early barometer of battery failure.
