Default help please! having alarm issues

The last couple of days the alarm for my C-5 has started acting up. Setting the alarm with my remote fob, no problem. When I unlock the doors with my fob the alarm resets in just a couple of seconds on it's own. The alarm sets again but does not lock the doors. I have tried resetting the alarm holding down the lock/unlock buttons on the remote but that has not helped. Tried another battery from my old remote, no help. Finally bought a new battery and you guessed it, it is still acting up. Let me know what else I can do please. Thanks in advance, Bob.

If you don't get a solution from this post, try sending a PM to forum member Bill Curlee - he knows quite a bit about the C5 electronics and might be able to give you a course of action to take.
