Title: alarm probs
Post by: tangocat on 24 February 2011, 19:07:00

Hi please help the alarm on my cdx estate has started (well alarming) about 3 mins after i have locked the car. some time it can take 3 or resets until its stable. I have checked the bonnet switch seems to be ok but removed it to see if that helped also cleaned the glass break sensor terminals and tried arming with motion sensors turned off with no joy. Any ideas please??

In-built batteries are on their last legs. Presumably your car battery is OK....not dropping to a low voltage by any chance :question

Batteries are soldered in. Need to hacksaw the unit in two, source replacement batteries (few types) solder in place then join powersounder and make seal watertight. New replacement unit from VX around the £60 mark, but you would need to remove yours to get part number, as again, different types/numbers
