ALARM AND DOOR LOCK DO NOT COME ON

When the alarm is operated using the remote control, all the doors do not close and the deterrent led does not work.

The alarm signal is managed by the body computer node that receives a signal from the remote control unit and controls central locking of the doors and boot.
