I have a 57 honda civic, the remote central locking is not working, and the alarm is sounding! the key has battery but will not lock/open or turn off the alarm?

What year is this? Is this a factory OEM system?

read the oper. guide yet?
check all fuses.
do inside car , locks work, all of them?

have you renewed the remote key battery, they should be renewed every 2 yrs ?

Damaged fob during key removal ordeal? Check battery just in case.

Here are the options for disarming a factory alarm while it's going off:

1. Close all doors, trunk and hood. Alarm will stop after preset time.

2. Hit the unlock or lock button on the remote. (One of the 2 works... I just don't remember which.)

3. With all doors, trunk and hood close, insert the key in the driver's door and unlock/lock the doors manually.

Also, is it a factory security system? Is it a honda key fob? or a remote start system perhaps?

open all doors and press the keyfob to lock all doors then again to unlock them close doors and try again might work does for fords bmws renaults and vauxhalls the central locking may just bounce but should still activate all door locks when u close doors

Hi I wonder if you can advise me ,my central locking and alarm is very unreliable it keeps making a beep before the ignition goes on and clicking,it sometimes sets the alarm off,Ive had the AA round and theyve told me the car battery is dead,which I appreciate,but think the key hub central locking or alarm is running the battery low does the hand held button need a new battery,or can I take the fuse out for the central locking,dont want to pay 66 quid for a new battery if I can pay 2 quid for a new battery for the central locking button,or demobilize it

try locking and unlocking the car with the key 3 times slowly ,other than that i have no idea ?? another trick is to disconnect battery and join the cables together for a few minutes to discharge any capacitors that may be holding a charge in the computer..Only other thing i can think of is the main dealers who have the right connectors and software to re set it all .sorry i havent been of any help

You can still retain the central locking system just buy a new aftermarket alarm system in which will cost cheaper.

try to check your door lock/car alarm fuse if still good.
if it's still working you have to check the driver seat door if there was no parts of your power door broken.
