heyzy 0 Posted October 1, 2003 Just remove crooclock either with hacksaw or drill barrell on the lock.With ur alarm u will have to take the main control box out(somewhere under dash.normally below glovebox)and take it to the manufacturer where they will program a new fob for your alarm.Had mine done with Scorpian alarms cost me £50.Good Luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
h100vw 0 Posted October 1, 2003 What make is your alarm. Each make will have a different method for obtaining replacement transmitters. META, you need to have the code key. Onit is a monster number which META program into the replacement before shipping to you. If that fails, they can reprogram the control unit and make the transmitters to suit the new id. GT you need to have the override key, that will then allow you to program any GT transmitter to your alarm. Some others allow you to override them by turning the ignition on and off and watching the status LED flash x times and then on/off again entering a 5,6 digit code. If you let me know what you have I'll see if I can help you more. The place that fitted it would be the best able to get you going again. Gavin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
