No Bleeping alarm!

VanDalin · **Posted:** Wed Aug 16, 2006 11:26 pm

I have the car booked into to have a bleep added to the alarm system. I am jarred off (theres a phrase from the past) having to check the car has locked if I don't notice the subtle flash of the lights.

The trick is to bleep with the indicators when the alarm is switched on and off and not while I am turning a corner.

The job is gonna cost about Â£40.

...OR IS MY ALARM KNACKERED? :bang

I thought that you could program it so that it bleeps. I am sure that was the case with the Gen 3/3.5 alarms but I could be wrong. Having a bleep might be something I have to get as well because like you I keep on checking whether the doors are locked or not.

Hello Mike, forgive my noobness but I am not sure what fob I have. Mines a 2005 Coupe with black lights so I presume that my car is a gen 3.5 so your method wouldn't work for me anyway right? My fob has some numbers on the back, N153......will your method work for me? I don't want to try it unless I mess something up.

Mikeharrison if I ever meet you I'll buy you a pint!

I've just tried your method on my 53 plate Gen3.0, and it worked a treat! No more squinting at the indicators on sunny days to check I've locked the car!

Beep beep!

My 03 fob has a small button, nearest the keyring, that only seems to set off the alarm, and a large button at the bottom that locks or unlocks the car......any one else have this type.....and can it be programmed to beep?

I have that one too gee. I can't get it to work :bang

But it is a scorpion alarm, I know this because I work with a guy who has teh exact same alarm and key fob. His bleeps and everything :cry

That's the same as mine Glynn. 04 plate, scorpion alarm.

The mod worked first time.

I don't know (yet) how to insert an image into a post... so here's a link to a photo of my alarm fob. Sorry for the quality, am at work so had to use the camera in my phone.

It's here --> http://wv838.com/alarm/fob.jpg

Hope this helps?

PS: The small button is the panic alarm, it can also be used to alarm the car but _without_ the internal sensors being armed. Handy, I suppose, for a hot summers day when you only want the contents of your car stolen.

Hozzie,

The Red LED is just a different frequency to the Gree LED, so the above method shopuld still work for you, assuming your remote is similar to the above pictured one.

Yes the remote is similar, however, i dont seem to have the LED in the car that people are talking about, or have i misunderstood that bit?

cheers twister

I've got the new Meta HPA alarm fitted now, but they haven't fitted the LED/Switch unit, just the LED unit.

Means that unless you can get hold of the switch for it (or the keypad), you can't program this yourself - you'd have to go to your dealer/installer

Real bummer, BUT there is a plus...

The Meta alarm flashes twice on locking and once on opening - meaning it's easier to see you've locked it!
