hey guys, im new to all this. firs time driver and recently bought a VW polo MKV.
it had an alarm upgrade fitted by the previous owner and the only thing he told me about it was which one of the 2 buttons armed the device. and even that was vague.
i had a problem not so long ago with the alarm, it became slow and less responsive. then it just stopped working altogether. the fobs are fine and i know its the alam itself because the over ride key no longer does anything either when inserted into the slot.
i was thinkin it could be the fuse. but today i found a small move box that looked sort of like a PC port for connecting to a different device.
this was below the cd player and the air con controls in the ash tray. i pulled out the tray and behind this was a small square hole where the move box was sitting.
anyway i basically yanked it about a bit and the alarm started working again! i got out locked the doors and armed the alarm, then i opened the door to make sure the alarm went off and it just did nothing and resorted back to its previous state.
does anyone have any ideas of what i can do?!
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks!
Back on Topic - Go to a local audio centre and ask them, they usually deal in these type of things. Its prob a loose wire or somin. If that doesnt work try and phone the person you bought it off to see if he knows better.
lol sori 2 hear you are misfortunate enough to have th sme alarm. its crap.
anyways, i dot have central locking or electric widows lol.
my alarm works again now though, once i past my test and started driving it workd again.
weid ay!
i had the same alarm on my polo and i had no problems with it at all!!
i'd say if it startsd to muck about again, then take it to the vw dealer that fitted it if thasts possible!!
