812112 Unregistered 8	right i took apart my interior and found the alarm, its a poxy ai606 , traced the wires to find a blue plug.... i unplugged said plug and pulled the whole alarm out, car starts fine, ticks over fine, even the central locking works fine.could it be really as simple as a single plug.

The four or five beeps tell you a switch isnt making...causing false alarms when you arm it. Was the bonnet switch which failed on mine.

812112 Unregistered 8	yea it is an ai606 i have, i called up a bloke who deals with toad and he told me , doesnt matter now because im going bin the whole lot. ordering myself a PKE system with a start/stop button, remote engine start and full window closure. was going try an RFID system but the computer side of it seemed to complicated for this time of year lol

the_mule Unregistered T	ok good luck with the pkey system lol just for the record a toad ai606 as well as the usual will run an engine start, boot popper, total closure, and unlock and pop the driver’s door open plus text alert[operate from a mobile.]and then some. prob the best alarm on the market alongside Clifford.

812112 Unregistered 8	i just reinstalled my frog with the 1 connector, i dont think it was installed by a pro, yet i have a cert. i brought up the install instructions and its only got the locking, indicators, door switches an bonnet switch, even the imobiliser isnt connected. \|It looks like they connected the basics up to the original alarm plug. Thats not rite is it??
