Check the bonnet alarm switch hasnt been knocked so it isnt being pressed enough when the bonnet is shut? |

I looked for a bonnet switch and couldn't find one. I'm guessing it's Integral to the one of the two release catches as per the tailgate? |

Really helpful to know that, only wish the dealership staff were as helpful. Going back to visit them this afternoon.

A hate saying this but the dealers really have no idea, generalising but true. They really are more concern with selling them and taking money off you for servicing.

I just checked my first service report and it just say "carried out software upgrade BCM" under alarm sounding on single/all point entry! There's no reference to bulletin, but it's in Topix MY15

Yep I'd go with that as a fairly to the point description. I'd have probably (and at the time did) use more words than that, but hey I don't charge by the word when describing things, unlike the garage!

You'll need a diagnostic tool that plugs into the OBDP to access vehicle systems. Why are you needing to access central locking? I think it's accessed through the BCM, not sure actually off top of my head. You know you can access door locking from the driver configure screen on your dash! MY15

I was hoping to get some idea what version of software was controlling my cars central locking / alarm system, ref the crazy number of random bleeps I get when licking and unlocking the car.
