If I disconnect my battery ( neg-) for any reason and then reconnect it , my alarm/immobiliser goes berserk . It goes through its whole repertoire of noises , whistles , beeps , sirens and God knows what else until it has alerted the people of at least three counties . Meanwhile , I`m trying to stop the damn thing from my hiding place in the nearest bush ! It`s a Concept 300 . Does anybody know how to avoid this humiliating pantomime ? :D

Smash it with a BIG hammer :smash:

You need to put it into valet mode before you remove the negative lead.

You have to put it in whats called "valet mode"

 

If it's like mine you press the little icky side button on your fob 2 times and the big button one time. The little light that does the flashes when its armed should then stay on continuously. You can still lock and unlock the doors but the alarm wont enable again until the ignition has been turned on.

 

You can then connect and disconnect your battery without any embarrasment and annoyed neighbours.

 

You should also make a point of finding out what your code is for tapping into the little rocker switch in the event your key fob ever goes iffy or as mine did once it forgets the key fob after a very dead battery.

 

The Clifford system links itself to the key fob so you can always buy more key fobs easily and you then register them to the alarm by going into the appropriate setting menu. You can find a manual on it online at Clifford I think.

Thanks , lads :bow:

I remember having a problem with the siren on my toad alarm (mounted in the wheelarch behind one of the wheels) made a funny noise when it was damp outside. One night I was on the way home I pulled over into a layby, unscrewed the liner, grabbed the siren and yanked it out, cut the wire and smashed it on the ground in a rage. Best mod ever!!!
