Disconnecting my battery

[brakedust]

Every time I want to do some work with the battery out my alarm goes off (at least i know it works!) tried taking the master key out and having the alarm off etc.... Is there any way I can turn it off totaly for working on her?

Undrestand if people dont want to say on an open forum so just PM me

Cheers

Is your alarm going off while the battery is disconnected or when you reconnect the battery?

My alarm goes off if the battery is disconnected - Thats what they are supposed to do.
I have a switch on mine where I can turn off the the alarm - don't they all have this fitted?
Temporarily run some jump leads from the car to the battery to prevent the alarm going off.

No, I can disconnect mine and everything remains silent.

Once I reconnect the battery it'll close the windows (well close them the bit it normally does) and locks the doors i.e. arm itself.

I thought this was normal.

They're both normal Ireland - It's a TVR
