Hi, I own a 61 plate CMax, when I turned off the ignition last night and locked the car the door lock/unlock switch (above the hazard light switch)displayed a amber light and the red information light flashes, unlock the car and they disappear until I lock it again. After a while the amber light goes off but the red information light still flashes, started the car this morning and the car's system is showing no problems but yet again locking the car and both lights reappear. Nothing shows when the car is running and all the doors open/close and lock. Any suggestions as to what it could be would be most appreciated.

    Hi, no message is displayed,went into the menu and the system states all good. If I press the door lock switch the red information light goes off but comes back on when both come back on when I lock the car.

    It's just an indicator to tell you the alarm is enabled.
