[s-cars] ALARM - Security System Woes

[Manuel Sanchez]

Fellow S-Heads,

I have an unfortunate problem with my alarm that has decided to go  
wacko. I returned from a 30 min drive just now in this cold weather,  
as soon as I shut the engine down, all the doors locked and the alarm  
system armed (the red light was blinking on the center stack). I  
tried to restart the engine with the key but it would not turn over.  
When I opened the door to get out the alarm went off of course.

I think I've read about this in the past, where the system gets out  
of whack but today is one of my kids birthdays and I am pressed for  
time as it is and have not been able to do a proper search.

Can anyone advise as what I should do next?

Currently I have the drivers door unlocked and all the others,  
including the avant's rear hatch locked. Somehow I think I should get  
all of them should be synced, all locked or all unlocked, before I  
try anything. What's the list wisdom?

I have not had the time to look in the bentley as I have a couple of  
anxious kids at the ready. Is there a fuse or relay that can disable  
the alarm system so that I can at least drive the damn thing?

Can someone direct me to the links that re-sync's the alarm system?

I'd do the searches on my own but I'm pressed for time.

Thanks in Advance.
