Car Alarms: car alarm reset, autowatch, immobiliser
QuestionHi, I have a AUTOWATCH 172 Ri Remote Control Cat 2 Immobiliser and have just changed the batteries, now the alarm wont stop going off even when i press the buttons, so i switched the alarm/immob off from the actual unit but it is still quietly bleeping can you help thanks Lucy
AnswerI am not familiar with any of the Autowatch products, but typically with any of the system I am familiar with, if the siren is sounding there is a reason for it. Whether it be something as simple as the brain needing to be reset to a zone being triggered.
Is it possible your remote got wet? Maybe doing a reset of the alarm would help....disconnecting the vehicle's battery for a few minutes can sometimes correct a problem with an alarm brain that locked up.
Make sure the siren did not get wet as well, water can short circuit electronics and make them behave erratically.
