Lock with key in door - no alarm, no imob just locks the door(s)

Press the right button on the fob - locks the doors (if central locking) and sets the alarm and imob

If its honking at you it means "mislock" which means the 10AS alarm unit is "seeing" a door or the bonnet as open.

Usually its the lil pressure switch on the A or B pillar, the contacts on the back often fail. Theres also one under the bonnet (left of the airbox on a td5)

It shouldnt honk when you unlock regardless, odd if it does!

f i press what looks like the lock button, i get two short honks on the horn. If i try to start the car here, the alarm goes off an I am mashing buttons to try and make it stop. Mostly the horn.

Hi all, i have what i think is the standard defender alarm and immobiliser. However i am not sure how it works.
If i just close and lock the door on the key, there is a little red light that flashes in the dash. I dont need to do anything and just put my key in the car and start it.
If i press what looks like the lock button, i get two short honks on the horn. If i try to start the car here, the alarm goes off an I am mashing buttons to try and make it stop. Mostly the horn.

So my question is - is it armed when i press the button and i get the two horn honks? (seems a bit odd). If not how DO i arm it?
How do i unlock so that i don't wake the neighbours up at 6:30 every morning?

Many thanks!

ok, so to disarm it is the left switch? Just once? As it is still going of having pressed left button, unlocked and tried to start the car. Sorry if I am being incredibly dense here.
