I have put a new battery in the key fob thingie for my 2002 LR Disc. TD5. It won't work. If I open the car using the key slot on the door then the alarm goes off. If I lock myself in the alarm stops. But when I put the key into the ignition off goes the alarm again ! Is it possible to completely eliminate the alarm system. If anyone wants to pinch the car they are welcome....

Welcome ,

Have a read of the alarm attachment in this link at the bottom of the first post.

You can get rid of the alarm , but you would need diagnostics, and to get that to work you would need to get the immobiliser off which requires the fob or the EKA code.


Cheers
