The other day I realised that my firestorm has an alarm...
A Meta Alarm M357T V2
I had been wondering what the push button on the key was, and I went past the bike and pushed the button, and the bike beeped at me
Well after having a fiddle I realised it doesnt work properly.
Reason being, is:
when the alarm is set, after the 26 second arming/test period, the alarm goes off no matter what.
the indicators never flash
the hazard function clicks a solenoid but doesnt flash the indicators
the LED never comes on or flashes
It beeps twice on arm which is ok, but always 4 beeps disarm, apparently indicating the bike battery is low charge :S
Bike is never immobilised
Well I decided to check all the wiring, which turned out ok, and checked all the fuses on the bike, all of which seem fine.
Then I found a permament connection lead from the battery (starter solenoid actually) to the unit, with a 15 amp fuse...
I pulled the fuse to check it, all ok, plugged it back in and the alarm doesnt beep or do anything anymore :S
I proceded to recheck all fuses again, incase one blew, but all OK...
Bike still works fine, which is good...
Any ideas?
Or is the unit FUBAR?
If I cant get it too work again...
I might get a cheap cyclone alarm and fit that, just as a deterrent...
