'86 300E Alarms when I open the door..

too quickly. I notice if I wait a few seconds for all the locks to open it doesn't go off. It may also be the key switch on the drivers side that's sticking. I can disconnect the alarm plug at the computer but I know that's a temporary fix. I disconnected the horn fuse or relay so at least it doesn't sound. I didn't find much information in the drivers manual about setting or disabling the alarm other than if the key has a red dot it has the factory alarm. Of course the window sticker is the other indication. Any suggestions???

my guess is that your vacuum pumps or circuits for the central locking is having a pressure loss due to damaged hoses or seals. It appears the driver side lock actuator may be the problem. Open it and check, maybe just the connection came loose.
