Hi,

A Beep (it's all the same one) indicates that a latch is open or as you say, the Radio isn't compatible with the system. The lights may not flash for this reason (s/b 2 flashes on Locking, 1 flash on Unlocking). IIRC, the fix is to ground the stray wire in the harness left over from the aftermarket installation.

If you unlock the door (remote or manually with key), but do not open the door within 60 sec. or so (dealer adjustable from 4 sec. - 120 sec.), the Central Locking System and Alarm relock/rearm themselves. This feature is to prevent a stray signal from a CB, Garage Door Opener or some such unlocking the car inadvertently - you're still protected.

You can also try the Emergency Locking procedure, which is to turn the key in the Driver's door to the Locking position 3 times in succession and see what happens...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
