Welcome to this blog that you want to lend a helping those who desperately seek for solutions to the Cobra alarms installed in their vehicles.
Throughout this blog I will try to provide hints on how to tune your alarm, change the cell 's command and the way you can check out the different types of false alarms that often make us wear slippers, wear the robe interrupting whatever it was we were to do (it's annoying when we're in pretty good) and of course we can not forget the names of our neighbors call us so many are the times that the bastard remembers the car start to scream for help.
The most persistent there down to the street turn off the alarm, wait a minute, well, sometimes even feel like smoking a cigarette, come back on again, one more ride, and seems to be okay until the next call.
The worst is when we do not have patience for this, and do not even smoke, let the damn car, we endorse the neighbors names previously spoken, turn off the alarm said leaving the car like that both at the mercy of the vultures, that increasingly proliferate in night in search of a radio (less common these days), navigation system or anything else that we in the habit inside the vehicle.
It was to protect those things that we decided to install the alarm was not, well I know that the reason was not always this, often the decision was taken because the car had no remote control and when it rains really is not comfortable, and was me to forget the electric windows, walk always in a hurry and many are the times that the ignition switch off, we get the
key and when we look, the jar was opened, as it can not guess we'll leave it?
Of course, at the time of writing this blog about the alarms is fashionable carjacking and why the search for greater security at the expense of comfort came to weigh on the decisions.
But on the subject of carjacking and the changes that alarms alarms and specifically charges had to suffer another post so we will gather more information.
Another concern of most snake owners alarm is battery replacement and subsequent reset command.
Most people find that the command does not work from a distance usually hastens to seek alternate cell, it usually looks a watchmaker closest readily measure its voltage and replace it, the problem comes next, what was usually a problem drive away has become the total absence of drive, right?
I can not forget the snake control boxes (plastic wrap) that are damaged and normally we insist on keeping in disrepair until it crashes, you know that only cost about five dollars and a new command alarm charges are forty because it could have saved some money.
I believe these are the most common problems to all users of these alarms and will deepen in future posts so that these issues are no longer problem.
Feel free to leave comments on any questions you wish clarified, more technical topics such as specific schemes will also be discussed.
Thank you for visiting this blog about snake alarms.

Good afternoon,
Where in the country is it?
Lisbon Area, but if there is online, can also be ...
Online, only if it is on Ebay.
In Lisbon, any company that installs alarms can give you the commands.
I could send you by mail, but I think with postage and all that would be expensive.
Do a search, often appears in advertising installation companies.
Thank you, I'll try one then try installing company, because on ebay, only found in England and only sell to the UK.
Again, thank you.
Good afternoon.
My question is this.
I purchased a cobra alarm model 4100, to install the car seat ibiza 1.4 95, but the electrician needs the layout of the car alarm and the power to assemble. I tried searching the net and find nothing.
can you tell me where I can get the assembly drawings? I did not intend to go to another electrician, as this is reliable.
thanks
It's supposed to all alarms come with installation and user manual inside the box.

Good,
Recently purchased a used car and even had an alarm installed snake (do not know the model). I found a rectangular black box with the symbol of the snake and alarms do not know what it is. It has 7 contacts but few have chips q is connected. In front is a silver sticker saying 1980 Art on the back and a white sticker saying 4M1980STA. I ask for help in order to tell me that this piece is and what is the pinout of the contacts. It hung up a card and I got was an electric glass crashing. It will be a module for the closing of the windows when the alarm is triggered?
Thanks
The Cobra 1980 module has the function to close the windows when the alarm triggers.
Cumps
Thanks
But what is the pinout of all contacts?
Is there a manual or information about this module on the net?
John, I sent mail.
Good. I have an alarm cobra 4100 model they gave me to install in my car which is one of 95 seat ibiza 4 door, but I needed someone I could get if possible the arrangement of alarm for the car in question.
Thanks
But the box has not had this book when I was given
It sure is a 4100 model?
Are only sold in Portugal (I know) models 4808 and 4908, and these types of alarms are CanBus and therefore need to be programmed to the vehicle that will be installed.
It commands?
Cumps
Or is the model that has is the image
Good. The model is 4190. It has two commands and PIN code along with all the material. He has been installed on my old car was a Fiat Punto, but now I need it for the seat ibiza the recently acquired.
Yes, this is it. At least the controls are the same. There will be a scheme momtagem? It already ran several auto electricians and nobody has them.
Good,
The model states that alarm was not sold in Portugal, I think the equivalent is the 3100 Globe series, make sure that this arrangement is valid.
, The translation seems to me that I modeled on the 3198 Cobra.
I have an alarm but this scheme is in Russian

Good,
I have installed a BMW 320d Touring 2006 a 4908 Cobra alarm, and began to experience the following situation:
When I close the car with the command (BMW) sometimes he spent a few beeps 5 seconds, not as if the alarm is, it gives me the feeling that is due to Aluma or glass door has been opened, but not the car is completely closed, even if I re-open all the doors and close the situation remains. The only way I found to resolve the situation was to hold the button (command) to close the car by pressing for a few brief seconds.

Good! Someone can tell me where I can buy two new 7777 control boxes (plastic bag) preferably in Porto and surroundings? No more my thanks.
Any Cobra alarm installer can provide you with the control boxes to replace the old, the price is around 5 to 6 euros, I think.
Meet a company in the city of Porto called autostereo do not know if they work with alarms snake.

I have a Nissan Patrol, equipped with an alarm siren whose origin is: Delta Elettronica / 4S5380A1B, which is no longer manufactured.
As is unrecoverable needed replacing. I think the siren will Cobra adaptable.
I appreciate if I can confirm the possibility and what model.
Thanks in advance.
I do not know the siren and so I have some difficulty in helping you.
I advise going through an installer to check that spot what type of siren that can be used.

Hello good day
I had a Nissan Sunny alarm series of snake Globe 3100, withdrew it the same as it sent my car for scrap. I wanted to install a Nissan Almera revenge but I noticed the driver's door would not need the pistol in the other car was needed to close the doors.
Do not know where to wire the closing of the doors (I have the layout of the central locking alarm that tells me lots of options) just do not know where to connect the car.
Thanks in advance
Lengths
Pedro Esteves
He did not mention the year of the Nissan Almera, if the model with source command should be installed a Cobra alarm model 3868 or G368 to work with its original remote, but maybe we can get around to it.
I confirm this situation.
I thank attention
Nissan Almera, 2001 and has integrated into the command key
comp
Pedro Esteves
As I said earlier in this vehicle should be installed an alarm model 3868, but check what kind of command central locking, if it is negative just connect the orange / white and purple / white to ground, the orange wire connects to the open while the purple wire connects to the closing, if positive is to connect two wires to the white list to a positive (+30), the gray / black and yellow / black do not care in this setting.
I believe that correspond to schemes E and D in the manual.
Hope this helps
Once again thank you
But I do not know which is the connecting wires in the car (there is a cable with 3 wires coming from the barrel of the lock that has no current) have deduced that the scheme was a central locking negative or positive
thanks anyway
comp
Make sure that the right door also closes all others.
Not only is the driver's door that opens and closes including the boot
In this case you can not use any of the schemes that said, you must use a pistol as he had in another car or the polarity inversion scheme in order to make a "bypass" the original central locking module.
I need help.
I have a Nissan Almera that has an alarm that came factory installed.
Commands are Delta Elettronica and the model 7726.
As the buttons are needed to replace damaged. Does anyone know where I can get replacements because the brand has informed me that no longer provide this model?
Grateful for the help possible.
Good evening, I got a cobra alarm to install on my corsa 1.3cdti of 2004, as have some knowledge of electronica would try to mount the alarm, I will be unable to find the wiring diagram of my car to help me / help in the assembly?

Which type of alarm you got?
Good night
Can send a photo of command?
Good,
I have installed in a Toyota Corolla Van 1.9 d star of a 2000 Cobra 3198 alarm, and began to experience the following situation:

This sound goes last for around a minute.
Can you help me?

Good,
Check the bonnet switch is the most likely.
Lift the bonnet, look for the switch and press with your finger (or unplug the power cord), then turn the alarm and make sure that this happens whistle.
When the alarm turns off the LED continues to flicker?

Does anyone can tell me where I can buy the old module to 4M1980STA electric windows, alarm for my snake.
I have the entire system to function with the exception of this module.
Good night
The module was replaced by the referring module windows 2980, it should be difficult to find the old one.

Good Afternoon:
I have a Nissan Almera 1999 that came equipped with an alarm.
This alarm is identified in the manual as Nissan Alarm II.
Right now I have a problem that is:
The commands have the rubber buttons have all spent impeding the operation.
I wonder if indicated to me where I can compare to the control box. Model 7726 is by chance or if there is any alternative.
Thank you for your attention

Good night
For the original commands of any car only the representative can provide accessories, snake boxes available commands or new commands only for its alarms.
Good afternoon.
I have installed a 1994 Seat Cordoba for a Cobra alarm, which stopped working. The box bears a sticker and has entered SEAT ref. 4B5810STA. I have the wiring diagram, and I find this model on the net. I found some diagrams of Cobra 5891 to 5893 or 5701 or 5903. Will any of these equal (wiring) to 4B5810STA? Alternatively, it could extract from my schemes? The commands are two rectangular buttons (5557stb in printed circuit board)
I'm grateful for the help you can give me.
Antonio Machado
Already changed the battery? Clean the area with alcohol where the buttons make contact on the PCB.
I believe that the model referred to is an old scheme 3020.Tenho paper but sees itself very badly, I'll see if I can, and send you another.
Cumps
Good
I've tried both of these actions, in both two commands. Nothing happens. As if turned off (not, I confirmed). The box includes the siren and the command center, being equal to the alarm of others have mentioned. I suspected a fuse, hidden away somewhere. But the plug that connects the center will come in several pin 12V. Or fail to recognize (all) commands or, more likely burned up. (No traces of it, or the components on the circuit board itself). With the moving car, and twice in a row, gave orders to close the windows. I stopped and turned off the alarm with the key. He did not return to work.
Should have any problems with the siren switch contacts, is what it seems.
If you have current and pasta, red and black wires respectively disassemble the horn and check the contacts inside the key.
I had not occurred. I will test. Thanks
Too bad, but not the switch. Works. It has four contacts, functioning as an inverter, 2-2. I suspected the shaft that connects the key to the switch, but it's not. Patience, nothing to do.
In any case thank you for your help.
Good day, I bought a car recently and found that of 92 has installed a 3185 that is turned off but u want it back. Begin by comparing your online store in a command box to retrieve what I found inside the car in bad condition, but I think the core is good, simply replace the battery. Now my problem will be the pin-code, the command to syncronize. In the alarm module has a sticker on the side with several digits, do you know this reference by the pin-code and not have to go to a dealer? In siren also has a label with several digits, which are not the same as the alarm module.
Good afternoon,
When you replace the battery only needs to perform the reset command does not need the pin code, just follow the instructions in the article.
Take this opportunity to ask if he received the control box in perfect condition and within the estimated time?
Cumps
I have not received the box ... I ordered on Thursday last and the same evening I received an email dispatch ... possibly tomorrow should already be in my hands.
Ok when you have the box and everything montadinho will then follow the steps to program the first command ... but have yet to see where it is turned off. Is there any way to see if it is active, before moving to the programming command? Do not go I'm waiting for him and he ne program "moves" ... It is true that when I devote to it, I'll see if it is fed and has a blown fuse, at first glance the first thing I did not like besides the state command was interrptor the hood to be out of place, I have to get a nut and puts it back in its rightful position ... will be one horazitas back from him, I hope not unpleasant surprise ...
Thanks for the reply.

Good night
You can test the command without the box, follow the programming steps.
I think tomorrow it will receive the cash went into the weekend, thank you for confirmation.
If you need the hood switch can also be sent, although not in store yet.
Also hope it has not surpresas.Se need help, I am as usual to have.

Good afternoon
I have installed an alarm in the car since 2001, never had problems, but now there was a ridiculous situation. Is that the alarm should be blocked. Because the alarm does not work (not touched) when I shut the car door will give the indication that this open with their beeper and LED Alarm access goes through (pale). 've Turned off the positive supply and still the same. The manuals do not even know them, or pin, or anything. What should I do? Thank Cumps
It is difficult to answer with a solution in concrete may have been an entry of water in the control panel, there may be a bad contact in a ground wire or fuse alimentação.Depende and model of the vehicle alarm.
I advise you to be checked by an electrician.

Good afternoon, I bought a corsa 2001 and it came with a cobra alarm fitted. The car was purchased on a stand and they had no commands as they say, not the previous owner gave them up.

Good. I have an alarm cobra 3998 model but I needed someone I could get this scheme if possible, buy your online shop recently in the shock sensor module 2057 but do not know how to connect.

Simply connect the gray wire or doors.

then the new commands when they start to fail we can not change the battery, running the risk of losing the frequency with the car?
How do then?
Of course you can change the battery, causing a reset if necessary.

Good morning.
The model is 7910, the engine just see over the siren.
Thank you and good day.
This model is compact, so it's siren and alarm, has a lid with 4 screws?
Yes, I think it has.
So that's right, central and siren.

Good, now I thank the readiness with k k answered the question put for days. But back to it, k have the alarm installed in my charisma and a 7910 Mitsubishi. As I walked to see if there was a sensitivity adjustment and did not find, I really need to get the arrangement in order to be aware of all the components and possible location. May I thank once again all the help I can give k. THANK YOU
Cobra alarms do not require adjustment of sensitivity, which refers to the model is compact, ie siren / central, and all components except glass or other modules that are central.
I have an alarm installed in my 7915 model nissan micra 1995, it turns out the alarm now plays bass and even turned off the car even with the ongoing power cuts becoming active with the led, but always get weaker, I would appreciate it possible for me to imforma type of failure can be treated, sometimes the command turns it on and off the (normal) but when he finds himself in this situation does nothing
Probably there should be a problem of loose connection, or connection or mass current (fuses).
Hello
I have a BMW 318is of 93 that brings an alarm source. The alarm broke a plate (for the stroke accumulator) which is a box with the siren in the engine compartment.
I'm tired of looking but can not find reference anywhere, even in BMW parts.
Wonder if it charges, because they use that tag.
Can you help me?
Thank you for listening
By presenting, whether it is a compact alarm (siren and alarm in the same block) is likely to exceed the value of repair of a new alarm.

Dear Admin,
I need your help. I have a 3868 Cobra in SMART for two cabrio .. (Smart's do not have capo) As cabrio motion sensors are always activate the alarm in case of a shake roof with wind or rain. I want to disable these internal sensors and also lower the volume of the buzzer when active / deactivate the alarm. There are two problems in a quiet area late at night cause great discomfort, would be grateful if I could help. I also know that the alarm volume and correct would not move, even now, the 3868 fires in case of opening doors with motion sensors off? Or the alarm is only composed of the motion sensors?
Fngraca
If called correctly switches the alarm port trigger the alarm.
To disable the sensors simply press the button until the LED 5sec after turning off the ignition, hold up a long flash of the LED.
