Default Alarm problem Escort Si

Wierd thing happend to me - I posted a topic saying my light below my clock had stopped flashing I was told to lock from passanger side which worked fine it started flashing

Got in it after work and to my suprise my alarm started going off I never knew I bloody had one in 2 years!!!

Now it only works if you lock from passanager and open from passanger if I open from drivers door the alarm goes off until I relock from passanger and open

Any ideas how thi sbloody thing works

Thanks in advance

This is because, both door locks have a sensor on them.

Clearly, the one in the drivers door has either come off/broken, so if you are locking from the passenger side where it works, and then unlocking from the drivers door which doesnt, the alarm doesnt disarm.

Take the door card off and you will see the sensor either clipped around the lock, or possibly hanging off....

as above sounds like the drivers one has come off as they just clip around the lock to activate them crap idea but thats what it will be!
