Hi All. Have a 1999 TD5 Discovery and believe the alarm receiver has given up the ghost and no longer allows the car to open/start with the fob. Have got her started using the EKA code but obviously once stop and left have to do it again to get going again, and 5 mins watching the red LED in the rain is not fun in the wind and rain. I understand it is possible to use nanocom to make it so just using the key physically to de activate immoboliser etc. Have looked through the menu on a Nanocom (original NOT an Evo) and can not see which menu or function need to do it. Have tried a search on here and nanocom instructions but nothing i could find. Could anyone give a walk through on how to do it please? Thanks in advance....
using nanocom to disable alarm/immoboliser?

i know just nanocom EVO and hawkeye but if you have an option for BCU - settings you'll find the alarm options there and you have the "disable" option... or you may do that untill you fix it : http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f8/recommendation-d2-owners-184078.html
Thanks for the replies guys. Been off line for few days. Strangely enough the remote has starting working again and better than before. When first bought her few years back posted a question about remote not working when has been left for number of hours and was told problem was it was going into a sleep mode. Now can park up for over a day and it will work fine. No doubt having posted this can guarantee will not work in the morning now! Thanks again for the helpful replies.
