So I got a 2008 Mazda 3 about a year ago now and it just started to have a really annoying issue. First thing is for some reason if i press the unlock button on the key fob, all the doors unlock and this has never happened before. Next there are times where after pressing the unlock and nothing more, the car will honk again letting me know that the security system is armed even though the doors are still unlocked.
Next is the most annoying part, there are times where I take the key out of the ignition and the horn will honk one time again letting me know that the security system is armed meaning that if I open any of the doors the alarm will go off.
I have tried to disconnect the battery and let the system reset itself but this hasn't worked. I have also unplugged the front hood latch to see if that was the issue but that didn't work either. I am all out of ideas.
Also recently I went to get an oil change and the issue started to occur after that trip. I did not see any other posts with this same issue but if I did miss one could someone please link me? This is really frustrating.
