Feels like a daft question - which alarm is this

[FFMan]

and how do i remove or bypass it ?

I've tried to post a couple of pictures. It says Gemini on the key fob, is it a 931 or 932 and can i expect the wires to be colour coded as per the install guide (If i have the right one).


When activated it inhibits fuel pump and starter, and I hear these things are pretty flaky as it is 1994 vintage plus it drains the battery in 2 weeks.

If you have the install instructions then it should be straightforward.
I have no experience with Gemini alarms but it should be easy enough to be honest.
If it controls the locking just remember that won't work if you do take it out.
If in doubt any auto electrician would probably have it out in 10 mins.

i posted a picture of the sounder of my alarm mounted next to the radiator.

Is this the entire alarm system or just the sounder i.e. is there another alarm control box somewhere else or is everything contained within the sounder enclosure ?

thanks

Yes, it is just a sounder.

The alarm and immobiliser will be under the dash top, with a wire running to the sounder. Depending on wire connections, alarms are often changed and the existing sounder used. Some have internal batteries though, which fail.

If you do remove it and want to sell on your remote fob (for not unreasonable money!) I would be very interested. - cheers

There is a company called AVS (avsgemini.com) in Clacton-on-Sea that can help with these. I found them very helpful guys.

Same Alarm fitted to my 1994 Griff

Its a Gemini 2339 combining 1002 immobiliser with a 1059 Proximity Sensor plus the Module for the electric door locks. I looked into removing it as it has played up in past.

Immobiliser has 3 circuits-

1- Ignition Cut out.

2- Starter Relay cut out.

3- Fuel Pump cut out.

Plus a Proximity Sensor, and a Siren you show in your photograph

The problem you have is, it also operates the door locks and you will have to find a way of separating the door lock module.

I tried tracing the wires but they go into the loom as 1 colour and change to different colours. The siren under the bonnet
has about 9 wires connected.

Theres 3 other modules connected so you cant just disconnect it.

I was told to contact Carl Baker who is the expert on these alarms, but he moved to France and used to come back to

uk to replace these alarms but he charged £££ to remove and fit a new immobiliser and alarm and that was years ago.

heres the diagram for Gemini 2339

I had my alarm replaced by Dave Fairclough at HF Solutions. I can’t find his website but try Mobile: [phone] [e-mail] . Top man

I had a feeling he'd retired, I don't have the HF website bookmarked any more. Looks like I was right:

I used Abacus to replace my system:
