Alarm activate when i try lock the door

I've been on Holiday for 3 week. When i turn home i try to start my gt86 - 2013 and nothing. Battery was dead. Not big deal. after charging car start and drive but i cant lock it. When i try lock door using key it behaviour like bonnet or trunk is open. The same after a few second when it try lock itself. It beeps a few time than alarm starts. What can i do? Maybe faulty sensor or immobiliser was the reason battery get flat?





Thanks

3weeks, a stock vehicle generally shouldn't end up with a dead battery.

if the batteries slightly old, might just need to reset the car?

unplug the battery for a good hour or so, then reconnect.

you also checked all the door trunk switches that they're in proper operation?

All seems to be fine. I take it to work today, drive all fine but simply don't want to close. Leave it for 8 hour with unplugged battery - the same. Most likely one of door/hood sensor get bad - but witch one? i think maybe trunk one cause hood one is really simple, and after i close door windows go back up so it seems like car know door is closed.

or some immobiliser iself is faulty - draining battery. But where immobiliser lives? i try google it - unsuccessfully :/
