1993 2.0l 16V - which alarm unit factory fitted?

[Albie 0]

Sorry to start another topic but the whole nature of the problem has changed now.

 

Can anyone who has a '93 16V with factory fitted alarm tell me which make and model of alarm unit they have fitted? Mine is unidentified and I cannot clear up the problem of unresponsive key fobs until I know what I am looking at.

 

Thanks.

I don't think any alarms were factory fitted, they were all fitted by the dealers post-factory.

I believe most dealers tended to use Scorpion 5000s? That's just some vague memory from reading the forum, so I might be miles off there..

Thanks for the heads up Dr Mat. I have found that a few people think the Scorpion 5000 is actually a renamed Scorpion 918 unit. I found the user manual and installation manual for the 918, (both disappointingly brief),but neither mentions a resynch process. I have added them here just in case it should be helpful to anyone else.

 

Can anyone advise on the proper method for this alarm?
