I cant get my remote central locking to work.
When pressing the button on the control the light comes on but does nothing to the car.
I have tried the obvious by changing the batteries in both of my controls but with no joy.
I can get in to my car ok via the key in the door method, and when you open the one side the other opens aswel, so i know that it does work in some shape.
Has anyone got any ideas as to what the problem could be.

Why cant i use my remotes to Lock and Unlock my car?

Another question - Is my car alarmed because i am only using the key to Lock and Unlock the car?

Any sugestions would be much appriciated

Your car is not alarmed, just immobilised without using the remote.

As you haven't mentioned what coupe you have i cant link you to a specific fix.

I don't know why i didn't ask on this site when i first bought my car.
Simples, fixed, done, sorted.

Was it the linking you needed to do?

Would be a good idea to put the solution here, for others to see

Reset the keyfob

* Put your key in the ignition and turn it to ACC
* Close all doors
* Hit the lock key on your key fob
* Take the key out
* Hit the lock key again - This should arm the alarm. Don't do anything dumb to set it off!
* Immediately hit unlock
* If your alarm responds correctly, then hooray for you, ya fixed it!
* Repeat for additional fobs
