Alarm and elec window problems

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   On my 1990  E32 i have the factory fitted alarm with the box on the
drivers front wing with the key off on it, the remote is the oblong one
with the corner cut off if you see what i mean 

The
alarm works the remote central locking OK and the alarm works OK as
well, it's just that when you switch it on under the bonnet you get a
single note  coming from the alarm box, close the bonnet doors and arm
it and it will not shut up, open a door or stick your hand in a window
and the alarm goes off like it should, but the alarm will not go quiet.

I
was wondering if the fact that the heated rear window does not work and
the radio is temperamental could have an effect, even if i could shut
up the speaker and leave me with the remote locking i would be happy.

Now
the second problem, the drivers electric window does not work, if i put
the ignition on i can hear a click from the relays and the interior
light dims a bit with the other three windows, but nothing from the
drivers, will it be the relay or the switch or the motor do you think,
or is it a case of, taking the door card off and checking for power at
the motor.
