I own a Citroen ZX 1.4ltr, this has an inbuilt central locking and code immobiliser, i bought this vehicle from a salvage yard and am trying to repair it and bring it back to the road. I have two problems:

1- when i lock the vehicle, the indicator lights are meant to flash, but they do not

2- the alarm is supposed to arm, but does not...i cannot find the alarm on the vehicle anywhere (i do know it has one because it went off when we bought it). can anyone help me with this problem and also tell me where the alarm would be based? thanks...rich UK

I do believe it is a factory fitted alarm, it has an airbag and also coded immobiliser. you say maybe by the handbrake, is there any particular panel i would have to take off to find this out? I cannot find the alarm siren either. This is now confusing me! thanks for ur replies so far...rich
