Alarm

[Annette]

Hi all my fob as broke so opening car with key but when I open it all the indicators start flashing is it possible to stop this ?

Easiest way...
under the bonnet on the O/S there is a rubber stopper that presses the bonnet switch, if you remove the rubber stopper the switch will not operate and the alarm will no longer set.

Well done Annette and co. Thanks Ray, I broke a button a while back and had to use the key. Wish I'd have known this then! :thumbs

Apologies for my assumption.
Anyhow N\S is near side, O\S is off side.
Easiest way to remember, the near side is normally nearest to the kerb when driving.
The vehicle effectively has no alarm now, as it will not set if all doors etc are not closed and as far as the alarm is concerned your bonnet is open.
This will NOT affect the NATS immobiliser at all, this will continue to operate as before.

Yep, it the cheapest and quickest alarm disable I know of!

Sounds like the alarm horn has been disconnected too as this should have been sounding when indicators were flashing.
No let's see if we can get your fob working again? Post a photo of the fob see if anyone has a spare. Also what happened to it?
