Its the curved piller between edge of windscreen & front door, if its got an alarm then there will be a sensor at the top of each A piller.

Yours is multiplexed - 1 press on the remote lock button should arm the alarm & if you have them fitted set the deadlocks.
1 press locks doors and sets alarm
2nd press within a couple of seconds activates deadlocks
If you don't 2nd press it in time it just flashes the indicators about a billion times and puts the interior light on (something to do with helping you find your car at night )
Well that's how my CC works,it's an 03 multiplex

WRONG!
On a multiplex 206 with deadlocks its the FIRST press that sets alarm & deadlocks.
If the lock button is pressed a 2nd time within 5 seconds it then removes the deadlocks & just leaves it normally locked, also depending on which BSI software version your running it can disarm the alarm system as well.
Go sit in your CC & press the remote fob lock button twice, then pull the interior door handle & see what happens

#23: Re: First car.... problems Author: fatboyslim, Location: Lincolnshire,Home of the RAFPosted: Sun Mar 04, 2012 2:53 am ---- Oh bugger

Or you buy cheapos
Or you're a heavy braker
4-5 years from a set of pads/discs is something I've never managed
(still only had the Pug since July '11)
I had a Cavalier SRi130 and that used to eat pads, I only managed a year from a set of Mintex and they used to be guaranteed for a year
But I know it's the way I drive as I brake hard and late

This might just well explain why some $%$£ managed to break into mine quite so easily. Thanks for pointing this out, good for future reference!
