Alarm incorrectly installed. Not many installers understand how to deal with a Soarer door lock module. A search will find info on how to do it right. Either that or the alarm is OK and the door lock motor is stuffed (common).

They look just like a model toy motor. Should be cheap enough new. 2nd hand would be a gamble as they do stuff up a lot. Getting them in and out is a bit of a bitch, just take your time. It involves door trim removal and stuff.

ok found the prob.
pulled apart the door and found that the cable running from the inside lock handle to the outside handle wasnt sliding properly. its hard to explain. but now its not unlocking properly. the cable keeps getting stuck on the plastic bit. and i cant fix. so know im looking for a new cable.
