Thanks for the quick reply

These are the only two keys that I have for the car, and they are both playing up.

A few months back, one of the keys became erractic and would only unlock but not lock the car. From then, we started to only use the one working key.

Then, after coming back after a month overseas, the second key packed up.

I was wondering is theres any other way to set/unset the alarm other than with the key - just to see if thats where the problem lies.

The mirrors fold/unfold fine with the button.

It's so annoying that this should happen exactly when I want to sell the car
