alarm advice

[m4tt274]

i currently swapping the carpet on the Saxo, all is well, everything is undone and its ready to come out.
When the car was new it had a Clifford alarm system installed. There is a large black box under the seat that is underneath the carpet and wired beneath that causes no problem, however a smaller black box in front of the hand brake marked 'proximity alarm' and a little volume dial (the car doesn't have a proximity alarm, it just has a button to lock and unlock and a button to dis-immobilise it when you turn the key) that was put underneath the plastic surround of the gear leaver permits the carpet being pulled out. Its been wired in on top of the carpet and through a hole. Its no big deal if i can disconnect it, it has a small plug on it much like a ford connector.
as far as i can see the wires that come from it go to an LED in the dash and button beside it.
the advice needed as i know little about alarm systems:
if i disconnect the plug will i be able to re connect it and go on like nothing happened or will it immobilise the car or some bollox?

i can get a picture if its needed. ive tried to describe it accurately.

yes you'll be fine to just unplug it with the alarm disabled. It's the module for detecting when someone is either close to the car, or leaning in. Dual zone proximity most likely.

unplug it, sort the carpet, plug it back in. You'll be fine :)

brilliant. wasnt sure if it would think it was being stolen and immobilise.

No problem - that's why we have a "thanks" button ;)

Yeah - just do it when the alarm is in valet mode ideally. Should be fine when it's just disarmed though tbh.

(Valet mode is button 9 on a 5 button remote btw - 2nd level, big button).
