    A dead lock will 'try' and stop you opening the door - but its not exactly welding the door in position - I unlocked the rest of the car using the wiring loom as in the video - the dead lock will need to be removed from the drivers door physically because as stated its the only door without a motorised dead lock. It can still be opened - it just means taking the door card off instead of using electronics and will take slightly longer - but it won't stop the door being opened.

    then it wasnt deadlocked

    to deadlock a vaux you insert key turn to lock and remove in the locked position this in turn disables any usage of any electrical part of the c/l to be able to open the door in question

    mate am afraid you are wrong. the car is dead locked. the drivers door will not open without the key. the rest is open

    to deadlock you turn the key so its full horizontal and remove

    The dead lock works off a micro switch on the drivers door - this activates the deadlocking solenoid inside the main lock solenoid.

    When you deadlock the drivers side you have to do it with the key but the rest of the car copies it. Non of the other locks have the micro switch so although you can open the door in question with the key the only door that will operate the rest of the car is the drivers door.

    The signal is obviously sent with a wire, its just a question of shorting the wire which tells the rest of the motors to de-dead lock and unlock them selves as it thinks the key is in the drivers door.

    This is proved when you plug the drivers door loom back in, the passenger door is deadlocked again (returning to the state of the drivers door) and you can't lift the pin.
