chewys_vr6 0 Posted February 9, 2005 Can anyone help with this little problem? I was out of the country for a couple of months and left the c in storage at work. On the day of my return a mate tried to start it for me and the battery and alarm had gone dead, after hooking up some jump leads to the battery the alarm went off briefly until the c started and now it doesn't work at all. I spoke to the stealer and their advice was to bring it in so they could investigate further, but it would probably be cheaper just getting a new alarm than paying them. But does anyone have any clues?? cheers in advance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henny 0 Posted February 10, 2005 you may have to re-program the alarm to recognise the fobs... depends on what the alarm is as to how you do this... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That works wonders in my experience. DOes it for Airbus every time. If that doesn't work, My mate Zak, works where you do and he fits alarms.
