X25 Alarm not disabled with BimmerTech CA

I've received the BimmerTech Comfort Access kit for my X3 F25 and installed it fine - the doors lock and unlock quickly with no delay.

However, whilst it unlocks the car, it doesn't disable the alarm so the alarm goes off as soon as I open the door. I have to use my key unlock button to disable it. Also unlocking with the tailgate button unlocks the doors, but the boot/trunk still won't open until I unlock with the key button - then it works fine again.

When using Comfort Access to lock the car, it does enable the alarm fine - you can see the right light flashing on the rear view mirror.

I've emailed the BimmerTech support but I guess they're now off for Christmas - has anybody else had this problem?

One thing I did notice was that for my X3 the only new cables to connect to the main harness were Red (Drivers door), Black (Passenger Door) and small white (Trunk antenna). There were no cables for either the large white or small brown connectors - I presumed these weren't required.
