Storm Warning 0 Posted July 20, 2005 I have a factory fit alarm, or at least a VW branded alarm. One of the fobs started failing which I thought was battery as distance made a difference however the light always worked on the fob when the button was pressed. It one day just stopped on me, no warning (fortunatly I was at home), the light was still showing but it didn't deactivate the alarm. I put a new battery in but it still doesn't work. My spare fob is fine. Any ideas how this can be fixed? worried that I am down to one fob and the VW alarm doesn't allow key deactivation :-( Thanks.

paddyg 0 Posted July 20, 2005 I dont have a solution but a I have this problem too, I got two fobs when I got the car, one working and one not. New battery doesnt help and led still flashes when i press the button. Its a Laserline alarm and I'm thinking I should have it re-programmed.

Storm Warning 0 Posted July 20, 2005 Another upload attempt... can anyone ID this alarm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andyvlw 0 Posted July 21, 2005 Its a Scorpion 916 Alarm, Try this link http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic. ... r=scorpion. If this link doesn't work use the search for Scorpion. I have a spare fob if you need one, as I changed out the Scorpion for a Toad Ai606. Andy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GIXXERUK 0 Posted August 9, 2005 paddyg, have you tried standing by the car and holding down the deactivate/activate button ? (i know on the older laserlines you had to do this until the green led dimmed ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
