S90 door key alarm adjustment

Post by TerrDawg »

I am having issues with the alarm NOT disarming when the door is unlocked by key on the drivers door, the fobs are not in this picture for the black car (I do have a fob with dead batteries for the white sedan but I'll get to that later)
Is there some kind of adjustment that I'm not seeing?
Thanks in Advance,
Terry

My 1988 765T has a switch on the drivers door key lock that operates the central locking. Sounds like you're going to be working inside the door which requires removing the window glass to gain access to remove the security shield that's inside the door. The security shield prevents access to the door handle.

Damn... I won't be taking the glass out, it's riveted in and I don't have a river gun. I just got a new drivers door for my 965 wagon and consequently will be swapping lock cylinders... Probably should have waited and possibly answer my own question but was looking for something that I may be on the lookout for.
If that is the case, I'll unlock the black 964 from the passenger side... for now

You're going to find this humorous .. I stripped the wagons driver door and removed all the hardware, mirror, window glass with stuck regulator and some amazingly designed latch mechanism .. Nowhere in there was any adjustments for the central locking and alarm disable ... And now, the wagon doesn't disarm the alarm from the drivers door just like the black one... I'm totally stumped, any help will be greatly appreciated,
Thanks Terry
