440 alarm led flashing while driving
Posted: Mon Oct 15, 2007 12:52 pm
Im new and ill post a "Hello thread" shortly but Im in work and short on time.
I picked up a 1997 volvo 440 2.0 glt on friday and im very happy with it. Got the usual probs of the info centre, rev counter (ive got a loose negative battery clamp that has cracked so thats probably why!)and the heater matrix but my current one for concern is the alarm/imobilser LED is flashing constantly while driving. I assume its the 4 times per second thing where there a fault somewhere. Ive checked all the fuses and everything seems to be fine with them all. The only thing I can think is that the person whom I bought the car of recently replaced the battery and I think this may have caused the error.
Is there a way to sort alarm out like resetting it?
I have remote central locking and it works ok. Ive not triggered the alarm siren but all the doors lock.
Any help or suggestions are welcome.
