Try to run a built in test procedure on it(it's described in the w-shop manual) see what happens........but usually the alarm disfunctions are hard to diagnose without a proper scanner.........By the way are u sure that the fob's battery is in good shape?
 
As Count Sierrafery above said the first thing is have a good battery in the fob not a 50p one but something like Duracell, also after reconnecting you vehicle battery did you re-synchronize the fob with the alarm ecu by pressing the lock button 4 times.
