172 Cup Alarm Not Working

[MrBlonde]

I have been trying to find some information on here but not having much luck,thing is my alarm does not seem to be working.The central locking works and the indicators flash.The LED by the gear stick does not light or flash,i have also tried sitting in the car and having the windows down to set the alarm off but no luck,i also left the bonnet open and disconnected the sensor switch but still no luck,one thing i have noticed is the the inside lock button has no connection in the back of it,would this be anything to do with it?,also where is the alarm fuse as i cant find it.

 

[MrBlonde]

No one then

Alarm fuse is in the engine bay fuse/relay holder. There will be a red wire going in and out of the fuse holder and iirc it's a 10a fuse.

Thanks mate

 

[MrBlonde]

Ok,so just had look and looks like the fuse has gone.Am'i right the alarm one is the big 30amp fuse in green?

This is a real random one, but are you able to take a photo of your bonnet sensor wiring plug

 

[MrBlonde]

I can later,whys that mate? @Chris_Beer

My sensor was missing ages ago, got another one but the plug connection is different, unsure if there were different types because I can't find the wiring plug!

There is 2 types of bonnet alarm sensors. One straight type and 1 L shaped type.

 

[MrBlonde]

Mine must be the straight shape one mate if thats any good.

Thank f**k for that

I thought someone had fiddle around with it. There are enough breaking on here to find a replacement. Anyone need a straight type one?!
