Locking question
Hi All

Not used the 90 for the last three weeks, been sat unlocked in the garage.

When locking the doors via the handset (2002 with central locking) the horn beeps twice as the doors lock.

Cant seem to find a reason why in the hand book - any ideas?

All doors and bonnet are shut

Cheers in advance

Mark

Mine does that when a door is open....could be you've got a broken microswitch cable on one of the doors or a switch is knackered??? Whip the switches out have a good look, check them out with a voltage/continuity tester if able, wee squirt of WD and have another go!

My father's old 300Tdi Disco used to do that - I think there is an option when you access the Alarm ECU with diagnostics to enable or disable it. My blog - www.anacreinhampshire.blogspot.co.uk

Hi BigRuss

Take a derserved bow it is the bonnet switch Bow down Bow down Bow down

Cured in the short term by a ball of gaffer tape placed on top of the switch!!!

Always happy to help Thumbs Up

I did read in and old LRO that with enough gaffa tape you can use it as a tow rope for vehicle recovery!
