2013 Defender 110 Puma 2.2 USW Indus Silver

Hit by a tree branch

So this evening on the way home a reasonable tree branch hit the top of the windscreen. It imediatley turned on my warnings lights, totalled the aerial and dented the roof 😳😥.
My question is after turning the engine off and on to stop the warning lights flashing now I'm home the remote central locking and key lock on drivers door to operate central locking is not working.
Any ideas before I go on the hunt in the morning?

2008 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 CSW Alpine White

has the impact / shock loosened the wiring harness in the door / pillar?

I cant remember which side of the door shut the connector is but someone else may pop along and advise!

Good luck and let us know how you get on

Did you isolate the antenna wire of the remote before? If not, it may got contact to the metal, got shorted and is now only good for very short range. Never forget: cars have owner, Landrover have field service personnel.
