If I’m reading this correctly, and I’m not sure if I am I’m just trying to interpret it, it sounds to me like you’re getting a warning coming up on the IPK, (speedo) indicating that something is open, if that’s the case you’ll probably find it’s the bonnet switch that’s at fault.

Hope that helps Mick

thanks, but the there is no sign that someting is open ( no draving ) is just the light of the alarm in the cluster is flasging all time....and the central lock botton do not open the doors

I think you can try to reset the central locking by (from the outside) holding down the lock button on the key for about 10 seconds (I'm not 100% sure on time but someone more knowledgeable on here will come along and correct me). It's also a good move to deactivate the low speed motion central locking function (unfortunately that's a job for a T4 so not cheap wherever you are) because it shortens the life of the drivers door latch motor, a common fault with our cars (presume yours is LHD).

Sounds like a bcu issue.

Thanks all if a BCU problem,,i have a great problem here in Spain no one ROVER especialist left:(

I would start by disconnecting the battery for 30 minutes

Pete.

ready! 30 minutes batery disconection and alarm is now normal :) thanks to all
