Rover 100 alarms
on: April 19, 2006, 17:52:00 PM
Is it possible to disable an alarm on a 100?

Not that Ive just bought one or anything, Im asking on behalf of a friend who wants to know.



Yeah, uh... his names Bob, hes bought it just to do til he gets his tax rebate and next few pay-packets, its not a permament thing. Definitely not. Anyway, Bob couldnt care less about it getting nicked, hed rather not have to worry about turning the alarm off or not being able to drive it anywhere because of intermittent, erroneous tooting from said alarm.



(Oh God, the shame  :whoops: )

Ya, remote locking except it doesnt work. It makes the horn go off - is there just a wire going to the horn. wtf is the horn anyway? Bob had a look today but couldnt see it..

Not sure about Rover 100s but i do know on older Fords that the immobiliser/alarm can be disabled if the connect the two black wires going in together. Put a fuse on it for a professional job :)

Basically you need to find which wires to use to by-pass it.
