now for the second issue i have a Clifford with built in central locking the alarm will arm the car now and not lock it, the petrol cap is also locked as i realized when i took the motor to see my mum went to fill up and the cap wouldn't open so just about made it home on Christmas day is there a way to override or get the flap open so at least i can get fuel as the alarm will be coming out shortly and being replaced .

Slot in the boot trim on the right hand side which you reach through and pull the lock rod back.
