daves16v 1 Posted January 13, 2005 I've got a Scorpion 916 full closure alarm that came with my C and the key fob is on it's last legs. Can I get a replacement or is it too old? It does look well used. Could it have been on from the factory? Ta Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Furkz 0 Posted January 14, 2005 try road radio prob rip u off with a silly price,,,,, u can buy the shell or with the electrics,,, i think normally a shell goes for something like £15 good luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted January 14, 2005 I think it's the circuit board inside that's buggered. I might be better off buying new system as the siren under the bonnet looks as old as the car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted January 14, 2005 I replaced mine from Timpsons (the shoe repairers) - they got me 2 'learning' fobs for £50, you just use the old one to program the new ones, they work fine but the range isn't as good as the original.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeVR6 0 Posted January 14, 2005 Have a look here... http://www.scorpionalarms.com/ They should be able to supply a new fob. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daves16v 1 Posted January 14, 2005 Just got one button on mine. If I don't get any joy from Scorpion direct I'll just buy a new alarm system. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StuartFZR400 0 Posted January 25, 2005 Some systems require a new fob, which is then calibrated; cost can be as much as £50. Find a scorp' supplier Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StuartFZR400 0 Posted January 25, 2005 Can anyone tell me if it is common for the pressure sensors to become too sensitive due to age? :?: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gradeAfailure 0 Posted March 2, 2005 You will be able to get a new remote from Scorpion - I phoned them about a month ago regarding mine and their tech guy said they're about £30 - but at least it'll be an official Scorpion one... 8) Can you PM me a pic if you do get one cos I'd like to see the replacement remote before splashing out £30 - mine works fine; I just want a more modern-looking one! :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted March 2, 2005 Just don't email them, they've never replied to me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gradeAfailure 0 Posted March 2, 2005 I managed to get through on the number that's on their website - the tech guy did say they were moving workshops at the time so that could ba a reason for the lack of response, so probably worth trying again now!
