best pic i found in a quick search...
the top part is the plunger switched previously referred to.
when the bonnet latches shut it should push down on this.
thus, if it has fallen off or doesn't fully engage it won't activate the alarm.

the Boot/Bonnet sensors are situated in the correct place
the wiring seems to be ok to the Textron control box (Pillars are connected)
Ive tried arming it with the windows down and running my hand across the sensors, nothing happens, not even the lights flash..
the only weird thing is when i lock and unlock the car i get a strange noise as if someone *excuse this* farted.
How can i get the blinkin thing to work...
anyones help much appreciated.

#21: Re: Alarm Prob - help needed Author: wpday07, Location: WiltshirePosted: Tue Jun 21, 2011 3:57 pm ---- hi, cheers for the quick reply, tried that, no luck :/ it just unlocks normally
#22: Re: Alarm Prob - help needed Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Tue Jun 21, 2011 3:59 pm ---- Your alarm isn't even activating then. Possibly a problem with the control unit

Your alarm is trying to tell you one of the doors / boot / bonnet isnt shut correctly & that means the system wont arm.
#25: Re: Alarm Prob - help needed Author: wpday07, Location: WiltshirePosted: Wed Jun 22, 2011 4:10 am ---- so the sensors are broken?

You need to check which sensor is stopping the alarm system arming.

Are all the doors actually locking when you lock the car?
I've got a dicky drivers lock which doesn't always lock and that causes my alarm to not activate.
Now I know which door to try. Thanks Lee
#29: Re: Alarm Prob - help needed Author: wpday07, Location: WiltshirePosted: Fri Jun 24, 2011 6:25 am ---- it seems that all of the sensors are ok, its a 2003 model so it shows up if the door is open etc. It must be the control box.. :/
