Remote locking and alarm are acting strange!

Post by FAC »

Hi, some idiot with a mullet crashed into my old Lanos, so I got a new one :)

Anyway, the new one has remote locking, and when I press the button on the remote, the turning lights blink on the left side of the car. But here's the thing, two times now when I lock it, the lights either don't stop blinking, or are left on, both on the outside of the car and in the dash. When this happens the only thing I can do is disconnect the battery and connect it again. Any ideas on what is going on? A bad relay somewhere?

Also, after this started happening, the car flips out if I try to use a key to open the doors, it's ok if I use the remote, but when I unlock it with the key, and open the door, the alarm goes off. Any ideas on that?

Its a 1.6 Lanos, 5 door hatchback, '99 model

Is this a factory or after market alarm and locking system?

I'm not sure, I'll have to call up the dealership to find out...
