Andy, > The locking switch is located ..... OK, I understand. This wasn't fitted to my early 9000 CS back in 1992. I have just window and sun-roof switches down there. My car didn't give any starting problems for several months after the central locking started to play up. With a new battery, both locking and starting went away simultaneously. Battery remains my favourite, but only due to personal experience. You could always take it to a "tyres/exhausts/battery" place and ask them to put a condition meter across it. I think Humfries (in the UK) are pretty honest. Evidence but not proof - my battery was shot to bits when I went there (Bagshot branch) and the chap still insisted on checking it with the meter just in case the problem was somewhere else. You could always try giving your battery a low rate boost charge overnight and see if things are better in the morning.
