alarm fault
« on: 07 November 2007, 22:44:24 »

Basically just goes off when it feels like it sounds for 30 seconds then stops.  Most commonly happens when starting the car but has happened when pulling off from a set of lights!!!! and when it has been parked locked for a while.  The car is not immobilsed tho while it is going off and can be started and driven(or doesn't cut out if it was already running).

Any ideas?

Yes, sounds like your sounder has duff batteries. Mine used to go off at 3 am. Vauxhall Want 50 quid plus vat for a new sounder. i just disconected mine. As its only a back up sounder ,(just incase somebody disconnects you main car battery) you can unplug it till you get time and money to sort out a new one. You will still have the main alarm horn so your alarm will still sound off.

Really? That's not too bad actually. Maybe I should replace mine :-/
