Does anyone have experience of a Meta alarm on their Chimaera?

The alarm is not working 100% and I need some expert advice and if work is required, I would like it done at a reasonable rate. So far all I have had is a quote of a £50 call out charge before any work would be done.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
Paul

Thanks for the replies so far.

The problem is that the battery went flat and I put it on charge. The alarm doesnt sense the key fob but with the stick I can start and use the car. I cant lock it with the key fob.

I have thought of disconnecting and reconnecting the battery to try resetting the alarm.

I know that at some poing I am going to have to bite the bullet and replace the alarm - just wasnt planning on doing it now.

Thanks

Paul

Tried the old standby of disconnecting the battery and then reconnecting. Alarm now works as it should and so far so good (touch wood!).

I think I will invest in a new alarm when the bank can afford to spend the money.............
