TD5 Locking and Double Horn Sound
So, the Landy has started sounding the horn twice when I lock it.

I know this means the Landy thinks there is an issue with a door or the rear door not locking or latching, but they all seem ok. I have changed all three door switches and it still does it.

What else can I look at ?

Any ideas?

Cheers

As posted a double beep of the horn means that a door is not identified as closed by the 10AS unit. It is most likely the bonnet switch. Bend it up a tad Thumbs Up

Thanks for the replies. Been away, hence the delay replying Smile

Bonnect switch is ok, I think, and I replaced the other three switches.

What else can it be?

Would plugging in the Nannocom tell me anything?

Cheers

For two two years the rubber boot on my bonnet switch was torn, but no issues.

Then a few months back the alarm would just go off, once three hours after I locked it, then thirty seconds, then an hour, then about an hour after that, so I then put it in the garage and left it unlocked.

I checked all the door switches then decided to replace the bonnet switch and no issues since.

For the cost, and because it looks ok, it still might be worth changing it.

Good luck

Yes plugging in your Nano will tell you which switches are doing what. Or the other way of doing it it to see which of your doors does not trigger the interior light. Often it is the rear door (boot).

When you got those results were ALL your doors shut?

It tells me that it thinks passenger door is open and unlocked and drivers door is unlocked.

Sit in, and lock all doors. Then what you get.

OK, Nanocom photos when I'm in the car and doors locked.

When I leave the doors locked and start the car the alarm wails than honking Smile

Just checked a few things for you.

The Nanocom does NOT KNOW which door is open and which door is shut.

It knows the drivers door
The bonnet
BUT. It then groups passenger doors, and boot all together.
