Just having a problem with discarming the Gemini alarm on my 1992 4.3 Griff. This has been faultless for years, but now the LED is flashing rapidly, and the key fob won't disarm the alarm or actuate the central locking (no problem with either of the 2 fobs). Went in via another route, but still couldn't get alarm off. Car will start OK but alarm will sound for a minute, reset, then go off at the next voltage drop / movement. Tried disconnecting battery for several minutes, but this is not working. My next thought is to have a look at the module which I guess is behind the stereo? Any ideas much appreciated....

sorry thought it best not to have how to get in other ways on an open forum, thanks BB. hope you get it sorted

Last night I had the stereo out, checked the module. This all seems ok, clean connections, circuit board in good order. Also central locking button works fine. I'm running out of ideas - does anyone know anything about the remote receiver, or is it possible that the siren is causing it - even though it works??

before you spend a lot of time and money just disconnect the battery for 5 minutes an reconnect it.

Had siren off, cleaned all connections -no effect. Disconnected battery for 5 minutes - no effect. Then pressed a small blue switch in the module itself - no effect. Finally gave up and put everything back as I found it - system miraculously reset itself and now wokks perfectly! Could only happen on a TVR.... Thanks for your replies.
