Hello all. Since coming out of winter storage, my 2000 S alarm won't arm properly.
I get the honk, and dome light comes on a second or so after locking. The dash led flashes twice quickly every few seconds. All signs of not arming.
In PIWIS with the car locked, everything is showing closed/locked/safe locked.

There are no alarm faults stored after locking and checking.

There was no country code, just dashes, so I put US (I'm in Canada), no effect.
I'm at a loss now, since nothing abnormal is being reported. Anyone have any ideas?

Pics of the states attached.

Thanks.
