Hi All,
My 2.2 CD Auto alarm (factory fit) has been playing up of late. It goes off randomly, and only settles down if i un-lock then re-lock the car a few times.
Now, the passenger side indicators are staying on (not flashing, just on all the time) when I lock or lock the car. If i lock/un lock about 7/8 times I can get it to go out.
Any advice? Or alternatively, how can i disconnect the alarm as funds are a bit short to get it fixed!
Thank all,
Jimbo

I had  a similar problem on my old 1997 Omega 2.0ltr - firstly i disconnected the horn by adding a switch into the wire from the control box behind the panel on drivers side footwell (this stopped me getting out of bed at 2 in the morning to reset the alarm from the bedroom window! )  and then later on the same symptoms as you have now with the indicators staying on permanent - would clear after a few lock/unlocks but eventually stayed on permanently  - this was caused by the alarm indicator relay failing - cured this by removing it - located behind the glovebox (had to remove glovebox to get at it)- i know this wasn't actually fixing the fault but it didn't cost anything

Thanks for the advice. Do you know if the alarm indicator relay is in the same place on the 2001 Omega?
Thanks,
Jim
