keyless entry just beeps twice and doesn't lock

It is the same two-beep sound the car makes when a door is ajar and I try to use the remote. I simply find the door, close it and try again and the doors lock. This time all the doors are closed. I dont think it is a reprogramming thing since I can still hit the panic button (holding down the lock button for a couple of seconds) and the alarm goes off.

I'd guess that one of your "door open" sensors may be getting flakey...

Yep, that's what it is. The switch that gets depressed when the hood is shut was bent sideways so there was no connection being made. I bent it back and it works fine. Thanks guys
