When we bought our second hand Bailey 620 Approach from the dealer, it came fitted with a Gemini alarm. We were told that the Bailey key fob had been deactivated because of the alarm and so you didn't use the Bailey key to lock the cab doors or the habitation door. The Bailey key (actually the Peugeot base vehicle key) is intended to be used to lock the cab doors separately from the habitation door. You could use the Bailey key to lock all the doors by physically putting the key in the driver's door and turning it.
We were shown how to lock the doors with the alarm which has a different fob. When you press the top button on the fob, it locked all the doors and set the alarm. We have had problems with locking the habitation door. First off, it wouldn't lock with the key in the driver's door (the passenger and driver's lock would lock but not the habitation door).
Then the alarm fob would lock the driver and passenger door but not the habitation door and the alarm would be set. The only way we could lock the habitation door, was from inside the van and exit from the driver or pasenger door. Then you could lock those doors with the key or by pressing the alarm fob.
When we returned from three months in France we booked the van into an approved Bailey dealer (not the supplier with whom we have no confidence).
We explained the problem to the dealer who said that he had not seen a case where the Bailey/Peugeot key had been deactivated in order to use the alarm fob. He is going to check up but I'm now confused.
It would, of course, be great if, by using the Bailey/Peugeot key, we could remotely lock all the van doors or just the habitation door (as shown by the Bailey key). And then separately, we could choose to operate the alarm. But the alarm does lock the cab doors and when it worked, the habitation door as well. I can't help thinking that we have inadvertently cocked up the alarm's remote settings and that is the cause of the problem. Why I say inadvertent, is that we didn't intentionally change anything.
Any thoughts on the matter, gratefully received.
