Clifford Alarm
Discussion
I have a 1991 S3 fitted with a Clifford Alarm / Immobiliser linked to central locking and remote boot release.
I do not know is this was retro - fitted or factory or dealer fitted. The car was originally sourced from Harrogate Horseless Carriage.
The first thing I am trying to locate is a copy of any instruction manual that may have been issued at the time. Has any one got a simliar specified car and a manual? I will happily pay all copying and postage costs.
Secondly, the alarm is reliable to a degree but needs some work to establish full functioning - any advice. ie.
Remote locking will lock and set by key but locks and unlocks immediately by remote.
Alarm seems super sensitive and activates far too easily, so the siren is currently turned off.
Lastly - what do all these message icons mean and how are they used????

Messasge for "loudandfast"
I checked the control unit and it is marked Eagle. Visited Clifford.com (USA) web site and they only list an Eagle II - which is not the same.
Clifford.co.uk site offers advice in FAQ's - contact your local dealer and he can obtain an owners manual for you.
Anyway loudandfast (or is it Andy?) how do I email directly to you? Where do you live - I live near Market Harborough, Leicestershire.

Happened to notice in Yello Pages a local company that fits Clifford Alarms - not the company recommended by Clifford?
Had car checked by them on Friday morning at my home. Alarm all working but untidy installation and badly "tuned". After a couple of hours the alarm is now perfect and does things I had not dreamed of. Also had full workings of the alarm explained
Also checked out the remote locking and found suspect 5 wire switch/motor unit in drivers door which I have still to fix as engineer had no suitable stock item with him. The whole service cost £65 including a written confirmation of fully functioning alarm - a real bargain
My thanks to Richard from Acousticar in Market Harborough tel. 0800 804 6140
Andy - many thanks also for your offer of help.
