Alarm

[mbronsell]

Hi I have a 2002 RHD Carrera convertible with Alarm  / Central locking Issues

Only recently bought the car thought they would be easy to fix  seller obviously knew a lot more than me

What works 

If you pull the Door Handle inside or out Window Lowers and also goes back up on close

If you press button on key luggage lid opens

If you press and hold lock button on key you can close or vent windows

When you press key LED on dash blinks

Key will lock and open driver door have 2 keys both work don't work the same 

 

What doesn't work 

No Alarm  Siren  Noise 

Doors do not lock or open remotely

Alarm LED not on 

No flash of indicators

Dash switch appears not to work except if you lock drivers door with the key 

Which has no effect on passenger door but if you press Dash button Or the Key Drivers door will then  unlock

 

Have manage to get some fault info from alarm unit memory 

47- Control locking synchronization--------- permanent

54- Radio receiver faulty ----------------intermittent

33- Passenger compartment monitoring sensors --------------intermittent

12-Door lock module fault--------------permanent

61-Central locking limit position unlock, not reached ---------permanent 

1- Doors secured and terminal 15 on intermittent

 

Any pointers please  Thanks  still a great car to drive !!!

I'd start by looking at the central locking system/alarm module under the driver's seat.  If it looks like it has been wet, that is your culprit.  This is a common problem on cabs/Boxsters when the rain drains plug and flood the box.  As yours is a RHD, it may be under the passenger's seat.

I checked its dry I opened it up also no signs of water checked carpet by rear seat that's ok also

Do you have the factory original radio or is it an after-market system?  The remote locking/unlocking may be a separate and common issue. I would focus on the manual locking and unlocking first.
