Expert 2011 locking issue

I hope someone can shed some light on this..
Last December my rear split door lock started failing. It wouldn't unlock from the remote - both sliders are operating fine. I could use the key manually to unlock until my mechanic fitted a new latch, both thinking it would solve the problem. However, the doors are somehow worse now. I can't unlock them unless I start the engine, lock and then unlock the rear cargo doors using the button on the dashboard.
The door is "deadlocked" from both sides - unable to use handle inside as well as outside still being locked tight! My guy has plugged in diagnostic laptop and error comes back something like 'no communication between back/doors and alarm' alarm is a Gemini aftermarket.
We believe that it may be down to a module failure or relay if one exists.
Peugeot main dealer want £££'s for a diagnosis with no promised outcome.
Has anyone ever come across this?? Can anyone give any advice?
Many thanks!

I think it's apparent in this helpful comunity .........
That nobody has come across this fault in your generation of van with an aftermarket alarm ..........
Which BTW  sounds very much like where your issue lies .............

I think vaz has nailed it.

Must admit though that I often miss posts in the newer vehicles section.  It's often quiet down there and I know little about them antway.
