I have about a minute to fire the beast up once ive unlocked it with the remote. if i dont it will start and cut off. then i have to lock it....... wait...... unlock it and then start it..... gets annoying after a bit, it says, auto watch advanced security systems on the back of the small fob.

 

heres the pic of the key

 

Just start the car rather than waiting 5 mins :)

 

Sounds like the immobiliser is kicking in

yea but then when i take my tops or if i just adjust my fat ass in the seat its annoying when i start it acting all bad ass and then it cuts off.... makes it look like its bloken!! as my lil one once said. can i adjust the timer? or something

I don't know to be honest. I think mine kicks the immobiliser in but then I just press the fob and it'll let me start. It does have an immobiliser fob too - but it doesn't work lol

ye the fob is disconnected on mines to thinking maybe to get it connected and working as it would be alot easier to just make contact then locking and unlocking it, imagine if i was the getaway driver and my pals jump in rug sacks full of cash and theyre screaming at me go go go, ill have say wait!! let me lock and unlock the car real quick..... lol

You need to talk to auto watch or Abacus alarms on 0208 677 1999

It looks like it could be one of these or an earlier model..........

You maybe able to turn function off, but if Thatcham it is usually pre set with a temporary way of turning it off....

You will need to find the main unit and get model number to give the technical guy's....

Try manufacturer first and then retailer second....

 

AUTOWATCH 160 RLi

 

Product Information

AUTOWATCH 160 RLi Thatcham Cat 1 Car Alarm System THE PROFESSIONALS CHOICE Designed and engineered to offer years of Trouble free operation, this highly sophisticated vehicle security system will thwart the attempts of the most determined thief. Many comfort features have been included to enhance the Convenience Of the driver, in spite of this the simplicity of operation remains one of the highlights of the product. The system incorporates state of the art components and electronic design.

 

The remote controlled transmitters incorporate the most secure encryption techniques available. No code is transmitted twice, rendering code grabbers and scanners ineffective - over a million billion possible code combinations! The main unit is one of the smallest on the market making it easy to conceal. Even if a thief locates the unit it is protected against attack by a rugged polycarbonate security housing. The Compact siren, housed in the engine compartment, is also a leader in technology. Conventional sirens are connected by wires that make the system vulnerable to attack. Not the 160 RLi. The siren is intelligent (microprocessor controlled) and communicates with the control module over a secure data line. Once the siren has been instructed that the alarm is "ON" - that's it. The wires can be attacked in any fashion. The moment they are tampered with, the siren takes control and starts sounding an ear piercing warning. Back up batteries within the siren protect the vehicle even if the vehicle's battery is removed. Don't try to physically attack the siren – it’s made of high impact polycarbonate and will resist attack even with a hammer! It can undoubtedly be said that the 160 Rli, uncompromised in quality, is the leader in vehicle security systems today. It enjoys accreditation by Thatcham in the United Kingdom and has been designed to comply with the relevant EEC directives Key features Simple to operate Two circuit immobilisation Two encrypted remote controls supplied Over a million billion possible code combinations

I've got one of those alarms.

 

You cant adjust the time before it auto imobaluzes.

 

However if you turn the key to the ignition position then press the button , it should switch off the imobaluser rather than lock the car
