Default locking

I just bought this lovely 850 T5, but when I lock it using any of the keys in the drivers door, it wont stay locked, it just unlocks itself straight away, and when I use the fob, the alarm goes off after a minute or 2 !
Is this a fob problem or is it the central locking system ?

I would suggest one of the lock actuators is not working as it should.


I doubt it is a fob or alarm issue. I would use the fob to lock the car and go round every door and boot to check there is a lock movement every time the fob is pushed. If you have an 855 I would expect there is an issue with the wiring between the car and boot door.


Cheers,




Jod.
