Land Rover Repair: alarm remote, courtesy light, ground fault

Question
I have a 1998 110 CSW, my remote would not disarm the alarm. The courtesy light came on but the red light still flashed showing the it was still armed. It would arm it ( 3 flashes of indicators ) but not disarm. I tried a new battery in th e remote but now it won't respond at all. I won't be able to get into the vehicle without setting off the alarm now - any advice ?

Answer
Hi Sam,

for my Disco, if the key is inserted into the drivers door, turned to the lock/unlock position and held there for about 8 seconds, it will override the security system.  Perhaps you can try this out.

It does sound like the remote is no longer recognized.  To resync the remote, click the button 4 times just outside the vehicle (within range).  

If those don't help, it could be an electrical short, perhaps a ground fault, for the alarm system.

Best of luck,
