Title: Central locking releasing
Post by: TOURIT on 12 December 2008, 11:11:00

Can not find this in FAQ,
The alarm activates and all the doors keep releasing on my My Omega CD (2002) Some times after about 6 hours other times about an hour?
Any Ideas anyone?

I tried the deactivating the internal sensor method from the handbook which is to press and hold the alarm panel button before alighting and locking doors. since then I have had no more problems with the alarm.
And I lock it externally in the usual manner??

Does sound like an electrical fault, but I have to ask maybe a silly question;   is your key fob kept well away from your car after leaving locking up? :-? :-?

Those fobs can have quite a range, and I have found that accidentally when moving my keys in doors in the past, I had unlocked my car! ::) ::) ;D

Ignore this post...I've put it on the wrong thread!!!! ;D :D

It's certainly not that...the fob just doesn't unlock or lock the car up after a bit.  Think I'm just going to have to buy a new key fob and get re-programmed.  But to be honese, sick and tired of having to fork out cash to get the car fixed.  Think I've bought a dodgy one really and just going to keep it ticking over for as long as possible!  I'm now thinking that the manifold gasket is going, or gone, I know the back box needs changing...not sure of middle section...and just waiting for my DIY job on the rocker gasket to go up in smoke!  Arrr!  Must say, i did the rocker gasket from the threads on here and found it quite easy.
