4 days ago i bought a panda eleganza and went straight off to get an alarm fitted.
The alarm does not work properly and I am told that this is because of the panda’s systems check.
the alarm dealers response was:
when you turn on the ignition the car sends round a little electrical pulse to check that the doors, boot & bonnet are closed. this then shows up as "check ok" on the digital dash display.
Apparently it is also doing this check periodically even if the car is not in use. this electrical pulse is disrupting the alarm system I had fitted and making it go off all the time. The alarm dealers do not know how to resolve this and I may have to get them to remove the system and offer a refund.
do any of you have experiance of this happening before? And do you have any advice?
It has been fitted with a sigma S34. does anyone have this alarm working ok? or can you reccomend an alarm which you have not had a problem with.
Neither fiat UK or my local dealer are able to offer any advice on this, hopefull someone out there knows.
many thanks
