Puma Central Locking/Alarm probs.
Discussion
I drive SWMBO's Puma more than she does and love the thing. However...
Today when I parked it up and switched of engine, the doors locked of their own accord. When I opened door to get out, the alarm sounded and I had to switch it off with key as fob wouldn't work.
Now when I unlock with key, the doors immediately lock themselves again. When I am in car and switch off engine, the doors lock themselves and when I start the car, the alarm goes off.
I reprogrammed key to no avail.
I am at a loss what to try next.
Have tried Puma Forums, but same.
She won't drive the Pork, so have to try and resolve it.

Thought about this possibility but still to check where it's situated. I know about the white plug in the r/h footwell, but don't want to deactivate the alarm/central locking if not necessary. If I can find the module, I will possibly swap it out for a known good one, but still think it's strange that this problem should manifest itself all of a sudden (ie.,no symptoms, maladies or intermittent issues).
