Right then. I bought a Golf GTI MK3 with Sigma alarm and Immobilisor ( I Have NO clue what one though it does have the keypad) and the remote fob has packed in. I have changed the batteries and tried many different things but it does not work. Now my car is immobile. Is there any way of deactivating the immobilisor? I have no clue what model the alarm is, what the keycode is or anything. Basically the car is sat down the road unable to move!! Many Thanks
you could either contact the previous owner of the vechile and get the keycode to enter, my mate had one of these alarms on his subaru and had no probs or you can take it out but........ that not a real easy job, the only other thing i could suggest is find the relay should be on a ignition wire you could cut this out and connect the two ends and maybe this should work but...... depends on how well the alarm was put in and whether you can find the wiring lol good luck
Ok on your keypad type in *17856 then *91 then *1 # then press remote control till alarm beeps This should reprogram remote in Ian

Not at all, i cannot justidy spending 350 on an alarm which i belive i am more then compadent to fit also the actual alarm only costs around 100 at trade price i understand people have got to run a bizness ETC but 350 for an alarm to be wired is A LOT of money and to me the Thatch cert isnt worth 350 so i will source an alarm of the magical place called ebay also you can get trackers for around 350 to 1000 lol i think im not 100% sure but that is also worth a look as a tracker would DEF be worth 350! Didnt mean to offend so apologies to whom it concerns and thanks for responding found a control module on ebay for 35 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TOAD-2-or-4-WINDOW-CLOSER-ADD-ON-FOR-CAR-ALARM_W0QQitemZ280011031033QQihZ018QQcategoryZ75329QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
Hi Ian thanks for the advice. Unfortunately it didn't work, purely because the keypad doesn't have a * or # button on it! It only has a little plastic numeric keypad on the windscreen. Thanks for trying though.
turn the ignition on and press the alarm key fob button is wot it says in the book to turn off the imobiliser. note if you press random keys on the pad you can 1, block the key pad 2, damage the key pad and this confuses the alarm. had a prob with mine and a new pad for 30 sorted it. also if there are lots of mobile fone masts this causes the remote signal to scramble as the alarm thinks someone is trying to grab the codes
Hi, I've got roughly the same problem, I think it's a Sigma S30 alarm, the keyfob looks like this Will this above method work? I don't want the alarm to throw a fit, and end up with the car immobilised! Do I need to reprogram both keyfobs? I've noticed that the LED on the faulty keyfob flashes 3 times, instead of remaining lit for a couple of seconds. Thanks
Hi There I have just purchased a peugeot 206 that has a sigma alarm and remote central locking system fitted. The first problem is me nor the owner before me know the code for the keypad (not a problem at the minute because the remote works). The second problem is that i want to purchase another remote (just incase we lose one), i have found a remote that is identical to mine on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Sigma-Alarm-K...ryZ75329QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) but will it work on my car? Thanks in adance for your kind help Neil
I have the same problem.......no code....no way of finding it out as last owner never used it.....remote seems to work ok as light comes on when the button is pressed........help please!!!
I have the fob shown above and a S30 alarm. i disconected the battery to add a wire to positive terminal and the alarm will not arm/disarm. i dont have the keypad or the manual any ideas how to sort out the alarm without a hammer or petrol?
