I have just picked up a new rallye, will start a project thread soon. I’m after some advice, the car has been stored for 9 years, now I have fitted a battery on it, the alarm keeps going off. Am I right in saying there will be a battery for the alarm in the alarm box? If so where is the alarm box located. The alarm has also been modified slightly. |

Have you unlocked using the key or remote?Usually, if you lock and unlock with the remote key, it will reset the alarm. ________________________________________ S Reg Diablo standardsSpec SORNEDR Reg Nile standard spec written off then repaired X Reg Astor in need of TLC R Reg Nile to restore Set of Lions to fit. |

Yes I did this today. Connected the battery was fine for a few seconds. Then alarm went off so I locked and unlocked the car, alarm was still sounding so I got in the car and started it up but the alarm still sounds. |

I have taken the siren off and had a look, it seems to be a sealed unit. So I guess I will need to get a new unit. |

Yeah, you will. Correct in the assumption it's a sealed unit. The batteries are of an age where they fail and leak.If I remember correctly, a new siren unit isnt that expensive. My GTi6 had a new one, along with ultrasonics in its past and I was surprised at how cheap it was ________________________________________ Cherry Red Rallye ....

Well I called pug today for a few bits and they told me they can no longer get hold of the alarm unit, I guess my next option is having it removed from the car? |
