   new to the french scene so sorry for any noob questions!
   
   ive read a few threads in relation to my problem but none of the solutions have worked.
   
   Problem:
   disconnected the battery to install wiring for an amp, once i reconnected the battery i cant open the doors without the alarm going off.
   
   the key fob didnt work when i got the car (saturday) so im going to change the batteries later on and then try the reset procedure again.
   
   im just wondering if there is anything else that it could be?
   
   cheers
   Ben

   I had a similar problem to you, it turned out to be the alarm sensor under the bonnet, make sure its not loose.

   i had similar problem, my key fob doesnt work and alarm kept goin off, i had to disable the alram. turn the ignition to 2, when the alarm goes off press the green button next to your hazard lights
