The most ANNOYING alarm system!!!! AAARRRRRGGGHHHH

[RoastBeef]

Every time I lock or unlock the 'ro, I get these stupid horn beeps twice!!

I can't figure out how to disable this function, but it's embarrassing as well as annoying!! Can anyone help????

This happens if a door is not closed/locked.................check that the door lock is working..............it is a common fault for the near side lock/motor to fail.

It's telling you that one of the doors or boot is open, or at least it thinks so.
Sometimes if the door buttons get stickey and don't go completely down when you lock it you also get these beeps.

Or it is set as the default for locking and unlocking. Check FAQ's for how to change - cannot remember off the top of my head , sorry.

[RoastBeef]

Cheers guys. I just checked all the locking points, and they are all secure. So it's either a fault, or it's set like that as standard. I had a look in FAQ's but there's nothing there....

I'll have a look under the bonnet tomorrow at the alarm and see if there is any scope for change there...

Sorry about all the cut/paste but it seemed the best way
think everything is covered
I think you need the personalization settings for door lock identification

ALARM.



IMMOBILIZER.


CUSTOMIZATION.

Thanks for that!!! It was in the options menu, and I've managed to turn it off now!!!! Happy boy again!!!

My passenger door lock only works intermittently, it's ok after a few manual operations so I guess it needs lubrication, anyone know if this means pulling the door apart?

Is the car under warranty still?

Dad has just had the door locks replaced after a similar intermittent problem.

No out of warranty, I'm sure it's just a bit sticky, if I operate the lock manually it frees up for a while.
