Alarm! Alarm! Alarm!
I've got a 1997 P'reg C180.
I unlock the car with the key fob, door pins go up, rear view mirror green light flashes & indicators flash. open the door, and the ALARM goes off!!
close door, have to wait the 20 odd seconds for it to shutup. I lock the door, door pins down, indicators flash & rear view mirror flashes (GREEN though, in the manual says its meant to be the red flashing for locked).
same everytime. So now i attempt maybe locking the car with fob then unlock door with normal key. ALARM is off as soon as that doors opened!
Owner manaul = Useless (only states the use of the alarm & not troubleshooting)
Does anyone have an idea of what i can do, possible key fob battery problem (would the car actually unlock if it was dead?), a way of turning off the alarm (under bonnet perhaps) so i only use the normal key for entry. at least that way i could get it to a garage.
There is no way for me to get into my car!!! please HELP!

RE: Alarm! Alarm! Alarm!
I don't want to interupt those of you helping mercstyled, but I have a question....
I bought my 1997 C230 used, and since the day I bought it about 2 years ago, I have never seen evidence of a car alarm. I have the red/green flashy lights, but my alarm has never gone off. I called the dealership some time ago reguarding this, and he told me this was a standard feature of my car. Where can I look to see if I have an alarm? Maybe the previous owner turned it off?

Im not sure if i have a switch for the disability of the trunk.
The only interior button i have on the dash is a picture of a window with a padlock inside it. The main thing i want to have done is a disability of the alarm (siren), obviously it would be great to sort the problem, but at the moment i cant get in my car to go anywhere. i would'nt mind just locking the car with the key.
car is w202 design c180 classic P '97.
