    At least it's the non sliding door side... your family / pets could have been trapped!
     
  2. Spent a frustrating half hour trying to turn exciting features off on my alarm, so that it no longer locks me out of the van on a whim. Whoever at Toad designed the UI should be shot.

    After great faff, auto locking is now turned off. My door buttons no longer go up and down like Katie Price's drawers :thumbsup:

  10. I've had two, and either the contact spring corrodes so it stops working, or one of the plastic mounting bosses snaps off. I just use it as a flagpole now.

  14. Typical, it hasn't gone smoothly.

    Post Office/ DVLA has lost the application, so I'll need to pay for a new V5C and start again.
