what exactly is it / not doing?

Im guessing remote central locking not working?
but key in the door works fine (and sets of alarm?)

so, youve tried key in ignition, ignition on, and press buttons (locks go up and down if successful)?
does the led on the key (if it has one) illuminate?
is the battery in the fob ok?  does the spare work?

No it does not arm. C locking locks all doors fine. No indicators else or horn sound. If he leaves dog in car, no alarm pounds when car locked. Seems like there is no power to alarm. HAs It got its own fuse?

as far as I know, the alarm system would utilise the relavent fuse for the relavent part, so many fuses, not 1 single that would do it I can think of.

Do you have a code reader capable of talking to the alarm ecu?
