Central locking / alarm problem

[jenners]

Has anyone experienced problems with their remote key and unlocking the car :?:

The wife is out and about and has called me with the alarm sounding off in the background saying that the key does not unlock the car. Tried unlocking manually and, as expected, the alarm goes off because of the motion sensors etc.

Anyway, for whatever reason, the alarm was still going off whilst she started driving off down the road and then stopped:?:.

Gotta try another key but I feel a visit to the dealer coming on........

womdered if anybody has any words of wisdom! (the red light on the key is coming on which I assume means the Battery in the key is fine).

cheers

Sorry, just read a previous thread that looks similar so I'll have to try that when I get home i.e. unlock/lock/unlock/lock.

cheers.

if u unlock with the key when the alarm is set- alarm goes off but u can still start the car - the alarm sounds for 10 secs after the key is inserted into the ignition.
