Hi
I have a Cobra 1046 Remote Keyless Entry kit, can this be fitted to a Fiat Bravo 1.2 SX on a 99 plate?
Also I have a flashing LED as in the fake alarm ones you use to be able to get, it has two wires on it and they use to be hooked up to the ignition switch some how when you turn ignition off the LED comes on, when you put the key in and turn ignition on the LED goes out so there must be a switching wire on the ignition switch somewhere, anyone got any thoughts, mainly about the Cobra, but if you know about the LED fake alarm light feel free to tell me.
Thanks

Yes you definately can fit the cobra remote keyless entry system to the car. You just need to find the relevant unlocking and locking wires...

"Negative control signal
Connect to the 1,5 mm BLUE wire (lock) and WHITE wire (unlock) located in the
wiring harness coming out of the rubber grommet of the front door, drivers side."

The flashing led is as you say somehow connected to the iginiton switch but its simply a relay. Connected to a +12V rail on the car which is active with the car on and not when the car is off, you then run a second wire direct to a permanent +12V regardless whether the ignition is on or off. Then you need an earth.

If im not mistaken maplins sell a flashing led kit.


EDIT:

Heres the link to maplins Flashing LED. Read the supporting questions on how to wire it in.

those LEDs are usally connected to a relay, the relay is switched by your ignition switched live. so the relay has 3 wires, a permanent live, an ignition switched live and an earth. if it has its own relay you can use those wires for your cobra.
