Ok hi.

So here''s my problem, i just bought myself a 1995 Volkswagen Gold CL 2 Hatchback 1.8L 5-speed. It has a stock alarm on it but it doesn''t work sometimes. I only have 1 key that unlocks and lock my doors. The other day i went to lock my door and surprisingly the alarm was activated for the first time, i saw the little red light blinking on the driver door. I only got it to work once and now i can''t seem to do it again no matter how hard i try.

Advice?

Could be a relay that works intermittently, did you double check that all your fuse box connections are not loose, sometimes fuses box connections can get worn and barely make contact, one way to fix this is if you slightly bend the fuse blades to fit snugly...

which one would be the relay for it, on the panel it just has the fuses and what they are but not the relays or alarm.

not really sure, do you have a repair guide with a wiring diagram in it? Can anyone help with this problem?
