Old alarms and bad running.

kazbanz, Jun 2, 10:13pm
Hey guys I've had a bit of a run with trade ins not running,not starting or cutting out intermittantly.
This has been in cars fitted with 2000-2004 uniden/ mongoose M40 alarms.
On every occasion removing the alarm has fixed the problem.
This is purely a heads up based on my personal experience.
I thought it might be of interest to the spanner men out there dealing with this sort of issue

I've dealt with a few Unidens where the Central locking has gone faulty and the Immobiliser has died completely.

I hate it when you work on a car and you need to disconect the battery and when you reconnect it the immobiliser kicks in, then the owner tells you they dont have an alarm remote.
