Morning All,
My 3yr Old (Bless Him) managed to leave his interior light on in the C70 on Thursday evening & we then went away for the weekend.
Yesterday when trying to start the car mmm dead as a dodo, so off came the battery & on-charge overnight.
This morning On went the battery & Off went the Alarm, could I get the Bl**dy thing to shut up could I heck, I'm guessing the Alarm backup battery had also run down when the battery went flat & it would accept a disarm command from the remote until it had some charge back in it.
Am I correct ? Is there any way of stopping this from happening again ?
Feel free to PM me with any process for switching off Alarm Siren or getting keyfobs back into sync following flat battery moment.
Even had alarm sound with Engine running so switching on ignition & disarming immobiliser didn't fix it.
It eventually shut up after about 5mins but I feel an apology note going out to the neighbours when I get home from work is needed.
Needless to say Reading lights in the back of the car are having the bulbs removed when I get home.
