Hi Di Ho
I'm sure this has come up several times in the past but here goes again. Drove my Cerb to Asda this morning, everything OK and as it should be but when I got there I pressed the door release button and the b****r wouldn't let me out. Took the car home and checked the fuses in the boot (after getting in through the 'secret' route). Perhaps if I had driven to Sainsburys the Cerb might have felt better...obviously the yellow ones are a bit snobbish
.
The fuses are OK but the doors will not open. The windows work fine and everything else seems to be in order so anyone any idea what the problem is likely to be and is it an easy fix without bothering Mr Agger?

OK I've had time to do a bit more investigating.
Got in the car yesterday no problems. When I drove off, the doors will have been electronically immobilised according to the handbook. When I came to a stop and pressed the door button, they should have opened but didn't.
I have just discovered that when I set the alarm, the led in the centre console doesn't flash as it is supposed to do. It had previously been flashing rapidly when the alarm was set and again, according to the handbook, this indicates that there is a fault with the alarm.
It seems logical to me (but I'm no auto electrician or alarm expert) that the two must be linked? Either, a fault with the alarm is preventing the doors and boot from unlocking or, there is a fault with the immobilising mechanism that operates to prevent the doors opening during motion.
As stated previously, the fuses for the doors and boot all appear to be intact but none of them will open. The alarm led should flash on the centre console when armed but it doesn't. Any of you Cerbera gurus out there any more thoughts?

Have you tries a reset? First take a pic of your modules in the boot so you know where all the cables go then unplug your door control module and leave it for a bit, then with the aid of your pic plug it back in (dont get the connectors wrong or youll blow the module) and see if it has worked.
Another update...disconnected the battery to see if that made any difference and it did...everything back to the way it was. Doors and boot open as they should from inside and out. Tried arming the alarm and this time when armed, it closed the open windows; it's never done that before 
So everything is working again but the flashing LED on the centre console still flashes rapidly rather than slowly.
Another thing I noticed the other day when I was up at TCS, there were other Cerbs up there that had a red flashing LED where the immobiliser key goes but mine doesn't flash. I want flashing lights too
but not blue ones
