Could be the battery in the key fob needs replacing. Also check that the battery inside the fob is not loose and making good contact on the battery contacts. You might need to bend the contacts out a little so the battery fits tighter in the fob. Could also be a sticking button the fob. You can dis-assemble the fob and make sure the button action on the fob pcb is good. Otherwise the fob might be defective or the cars reciever is defective. If you have a spare fob try using it to see if it changes. If you get the same results with the spare fob then I would point to a problem with the car's reciever.

Testimonial: "Thank you very much but i cant lock it manually either!! "

    If you are having trouble locking it manually then it is a problem with the electrical locking system of the vehicle and not the fob....sorry I mis-understood you.

If none of these work your car has a key-in-cylinder sensor that could be faulty

Car alarm goes off when unlocking door

You will needs to think of it this way. Once you set your alarm it is looking for the corresponding signal to disable itself. That comes from the fob. If you don't use the fob and just use the key, the alarm system is doing its job and alerting you since it has not received the disable command from the fob. Either lock the door with the button when you exit the car if you want to use the key or use the alarm fob. This will also happen if you use the car manufacturers fob to unlock the car if you have locked it with the alarm manufacturers fob.

Hope that helps - I have hidden all of my original car fobs to help alleviate this problem!

2000 BMW 323I WONT UNLOCK WITH THE KEY OR KEY FOB, ANY IDEAS?

I had same problem. Driver door would lock/unlock with key in keyhole in door, but not with fob, and other doors would not lock/unlock. Even once inside none of the doors would lock/unlock with lock switch, or even by pulling handles. Mechanic (very trustworthy) explained I needed a new control module (cost me $600). Good Luck. $600 is better than having to roll down the windows so Grandma can Luke Duke it outta the car.

Everytime I lock the car using the key fob, about 30 seconds later the alarm sounds but the lights do not flash and the horn does not sound. Only when I unlock the car will it go off. I have disconnected...

you may have a bad door switch, theres a switch on the drivers door lock, when door is unlocked with fob or key the switch is activeated to shut alarm down,the lock moves to hit switch with key or fob,so if the switch is bad it will not shut down alarm, i would start there,door panel has to be remove,then latch has to be remove to get to switch, then test with a meter see if it opens and closes the connection, hope this helps.
