Central locking failure

A few weeks ago my central locking stopped working , i have checked the batteries and it affects both fobs. I have also noticed that the radio does not receive any channels. Can you advise what the problem may be? I currently open the door using the small lock in the fob.

Good thinking. Must be a combined radio receiver and remote receiver. Whatever receives signals to the car has failed. Might just be a fuse. But when a fuse blows there is normally a reason.
