Sigma Alarm

[saxotistic]

Just bought a VTR yesterday and it has got a sigma alarm on there but i was in the car and put the alarm on and was moving around in the car and tapping on the sensors inside the car but the alaram didnt go off, anyone know why? Are these alarms any good?

could try a multimeter on the wires mate, some people end up disconnecting the sensors, so set the alarm then put the multimeter on then to see if theres any current coming through :y:

you can turn the sensors off inside, when i had mine installed the guy said something along the lines of....when the ignition is on press the keyfob twice and it will disarm them. try doing that then turn the alarm on.

DONT mutimeter the sonic wires as you can blow the whole alarm system. How long did you leave it b4 moving? most alarms take between 30secs and 1 min to arm up. to test leave a window open and are the alarm system, wait for 2 mins and then put your arm in the window in at time the alarm will be fully armed and should go off. if not the sonics may have been unpluged or a fcuked.

i just locked it with both windows open and left it like that for about 20 minutes after it didn't go off :( its only been installed for about a month now

try to find the alarm brain and see if the sonics are pluged in if not you can by new sonics on there own but if it is only a month old try to take it back to the fitter.

How do you know if the sonics are pluged in as ther are loads of wires
