What good is an alarm if their functions are not properly programmed, or their connections are not made properly? Probably very little, is very common to find cars with different types of alarm that the assembly was not done by true professionals, we find facilities without mounting the bonnet switch, no connection to the bag or even without the protection of ports is made.
It seems serious? I think so, it is not uncommon to find vehicles in all these situations are a reality, the only protection in the background are the existing sensors and a sticker, if it breaks down it can only the last, to an assembly of around 250 Euros on average is indeed serious.
So they can monitor effectively the assembly of most models will follow the following alarm indications:
Test Perimeter protection
- Turn your alarm and wait 40 seconds (coincides with the start of the blinking LED interior in most models), this is the time it needs to be fully operational.
- Open a door slowly, the bell should start ringing, close the door and turn off the alarm.
- The direction indicators should flash four times and the light show inside the alarm memory .
- Do the same for all other ports, one at a time.
- Perform the same test for the engine hood.
- The same test should be made to the bag, in van type vehicles, open the bag just a little slowly so that the sensors detect no movement, just want to test the connection of the respective switch.
Test volumetric sensors / ultrasonic.
You can perform this test in two ways, and point two, to be difficult in raising alarms with automatic hold a glass of them.
Option 1-No increase in auto glass.
- Close all doors, hood and trunk of your car leaving two on the same side windows slightly open (about 10 cm).
- Connect the alarm and within 40 sec (this is in contrast, do not expect it to be fully active), insert a hand through the glass and wave space inside the car.
- The LED Interior must issue a wink every time beckons, if you run fast movements correspond with the LED blinks rapidly.
- Turn off the alarm.
Option 2-To increase module for vehicles with glass installed.
- Sit in the driver's seat position in property and perform the steps described above, excluding the course of the windows because they must be fully closed.
- Do the same the same kind of movement inside the car.
- The alarm LED will match the same way as described above.
In any assembly all links must be made not only for the sake of security, without a doubt the most important, but also as a matter of some programming functions alarme.Quantas times have tried to enter the table of advanced functions and has not been possible, or if you need to code a command again, if the connection of the bonnet or the driver's door is not made will fail in any of these operations.
Test the installation of your alarm and if you find any abnormality head over to a specialty company.

Ok,
By chance this afternoon to test the alarm went and checked out the following:
- With the active alarm tried to unlock the car with the key and then he went off and started playing;
- With the windows open and the alarm is active I put my hand inside the car and he also shot;
- Only the hood unlocked the button and activate the alarm, so he was active I was totally open the hood and then closed it, and the alarm did not fire
- The bag is closed as the tram (only has one button) can not test the alarm
In situations where the alarm went off I noticed that the blinkers 6 (3 each side) there are two that are not lit when the alarm goes off, and in particular the front and side of the driver's side. Both this and the opening of hood does not trigger the alarm I think this is some anomaly?
Thank you very much

Ask to see if the hood switch is installed, beyond the protection you need for any programming.
In relation to indicators and although it is less important, should also be verified links.

Good afternoon, I have a cobra alarm. n extacmente know the model but I can see if I point out how .. already bought the car alarm was activated but not because you lost the command and sent him off ...
My doubt is if I can buy \ command to get a snake and reactivate my alarm ..
if you can answer me my email po .. thanks
I do not think it is difficult to put into operation the alarm, just go to an installer that you can check the alarm code and a new command .
If you have any problems tell.
You know I state the most basic places where the control panel? Is that my power is off and wanted her to see if it worked before buying the command because they are 50EUR ..
my alarm 3310 is a snake. already tried on the hood and just have the horn .. under the glove box is also not ...
Thanks in advance
Most likely be in the driver's side in the area beneath the steering wheel.
We find it .. I know I have to give the lead ha store. if all or just the center to make me a new command.? thanks
No need to disassemble anything on the vehicle, just follow the procedures for scheduling a command again.
You only need to buy a command and follow the procedures, if you have trouble leave a comment in the relevant article.
Now we need to find the pin code .. know it takes a reference .. where does it lie? the plant has some numbers .. do not know if it will ..
thanks
If no code is more difficult, try the factory.
and what the factory? Model 3195
"Almost all of the alarms had been collecting a pin code of factory pre-configured for security reasons will not disclose here. "
Good friend, I have a Cobra alarm fitted in the car, I do not know what model it is and I believe did not come home in the car. The thing is, whenever I open / close the car the blinkers do not work, open the windows if they do not close, if you're in the car with the ignition off and close the latch alarm is activated, the siren is very low, and leave a glass does not open it beeps ... no signs of ill-closed door ...
Not like a snake ... if I can help ...
Good,
He said that this is installed car alarm, anyway it seems to me that some points are due to poor installation, do the test again when your alarm so as to make all these situations.
Note that the alarm will only be active after about 45 sec after the call, and therefore only after this time is that it can test all situations.
Tell the test results, and make and model of car.
Yes yes, the trials have made them many, and always passed the 45seg, I went by chance by me when the led was just to keep flashing. The alarm is mounted on a fiat bravo for October 2000, do not know if you have any difference I do not think, but it is a gt jtd and is not commercial.
One more point, I had another car before this, an alpha 146 and this brought a snake with the command part, that well known, this alarm was a show, I had a glass anerto it was closed! A door had not closed, even if the hood or trunk once it warned, could hear really well, and witnessed with blinkers, this is not the famous command,'re integrated into the car keys and you have the middle where LED is a kind of a button. I do not know if it helps in something ...
A big thank you in advance!
Greetings
The type of alarm that is mounted on your car is a 3868 at all like the other models, with the difference be activated with the original command car, so it is still "a show".
Regarding the windows just install a module electric windows and get this problem solved, only in models of cars with comfort system is that you do not need this module.
The other anomalies are due to incorrect installation of the alarm, because the model of alarm also signals that you have installed all of these, unfortunately most of the malfunctions are due to a faulty installation, to say the least.
I can only suggest that you review the installation to correct these "anomalies."
Ps: The LED is the button to enter the Pin Code to deactivate the alarm.
Greetings
Thanks for your help friend, but do not know where it was installed and not even know where I can handle it, I might not handle it?
As I've seen on your site and explain how to enable and disable certain features that are only for the command, sometimes you have to press the B button and I do not have lool.
Greetings
I went to see the model and it said 3800 ... Globe and comes with a lot of things disabled
To increase the volume of the siren just follow the directions of the article.
In the tests we did what were the results, opening each door the alarm goes off? If you leave the window open and put his hand inside the LED flashes and the alarm goes past the 45's? The bonnet switch is?
Good evening, I bought a cobra alarm ref.3868 vouyager to install a chrysler crd lx 2.5-year 2002.bem passes to the following auto electrician have a friend that I installed the alarm, but shows no sign of flashers or siren the only sign that gives the led's alarm, he put the pin code and nada.será the siren or bad programming?
One more thing my car is that the indicators are independent and have to take a few diodes to test and he only turned to alarm flashers traseiros.será why not work?
Dear Mario,
For all the blinkers work must connect the yellow wires to each of the turn signals, if they are as independent states have to put a diode in each.
For when the horn sounds the alarm on and off has to adjust the volume of the siren , to enter the programming of any type of alarm it is necessary that the Cobra wire hood and doors are connected, otherwise you can not even adjust the volume of siren or alter any programming.
Review these points and everything will work right.

Neither the back where the wires were connected?
I thanked him to take a good doubt bought a peugeot 106 xsi 1998 and has a cobra alarm 7905 and have a command can not because he already did the programming work and nothing is there any way to see if the latch is well connected yet to see the LED car lights
thanks
by mistake did not say that the button the hood it is not
Will some inconvenience
thanks
The LED lights command?
The bonnet switch is only required to enter the table settings , it is not necessary to program the command.
good command but I have no lights of the alarm reaction
What could be
thanks
It is not easy to say, if the alarm is properly connected can only be the programming of the command , then try again.
If it does not, check fuses (somewhere near the battery or the area underneath the steering wheel) and the link mass.
Greetings
Ja could not connect just gives the buzzer on and off when
Thanks and keep up the good work.
I do appreciate the visit and comment.
Adjusting the volume when the siren on and off easy.
Install the bonnet switch or find out the blue wire coming out of the siren and pull over to the mass and follow the steps in the post.

hello good evening I wanted to know where can I find the instruction manual for my alarm ..
cobra alarm and 3310 .. this to work properly .. only thing I have to point and when I open the car and not methodological keys in the ignition after a few minutes the car starts to beep (normal up here) after I stop the alarm with the button to open the doors and after about 5 seconds beep back .. to stop beeping have to lock and unlock, and then spent about 5 minutes back to referee .. when I have the car to do a revision or change tires or something like that I have to leave the keys in the ignition to not be embarrassed by it .. beep always tar grateful if I could help!
I apologize for will but could not express myself in fewer words .. an appreciation and thanks
I do not think that your alarm is working well.
The user manual will not help much because it seems to me that there is need to check all the basic settings.
The car's original command closes / opens the car and on / off the alarm?
Cumps
the car's original remote has no button to turn the alarm .. to open the door so the lock ..
What is the brand of car?
the brand of car, vw golf 4, 2001
What strikes me is that it lacks the command to turn the alarm while closing and opening the car.
If you have the pin code of the alarm, just set a new command , if no code is necessary to dismantle the plant and, or the number of new series programming commands, or replace with a new central command.
In what area of the country lives?

Since I already want to congratulate the admin page, and makes available all data, now I leave here my doubts: 1) how can I test if the immobilizer alarm is in operation?
Thanks for visiting and comment.
To test the immobilizer alarm, just turn it on and when the LED is blinking, enter the vehicle and put the engine into the vehicle funcionamento.Assim that the alarm should start ringing, and if they have not be able to conveniently place on the engine.
This test is not valid for the immobilization of origin, they work through a transponder embedded in the key and a receiver with the gun ignition and therefore with the original key it will take sempre.O Cobra alarm as well as most of the auto alarm interrupt enable a given connection (ignition, starter or fuel pump) when the alarm is on.

Honda Civic 94, and use an alarm G3998 series, today I went to the installer, and you've been explaining the situation and he says he will resolve the situation, but now my thanks.
I have a golf iv 99.
I have a command that is seen by a snake alarm:
Siren alarm: - I have
Volumetric sensor / Ultrasound: - I have
ie, pressing the A button and he closes it opens B
but it keeps flashing light at the door is sometimes the first trancadela she calls, and sometimes you have to charge it for three consecutive times ...
Did not come with manual or PIN code.
I did the tests here but I do not give me anything ...
Will I only have the central locking module??
help me.
hug
It has a command equal to this image?
exactly the same.
It is probable that only one radio module command and glass doors, I think the ref is 1046, never installed any of the Cobra but have done it for other brands.
If the top or bottom of the pillars of the doors has sensors, if there's a light inside and has no siren is because it has no alarm.
Try to get an installer to confirm this.
Cumps
my doubt is that you have purchased an audi key with 433MHz frequency and whether or not you per abir and close the doors instead of the command!
is it possible??
the car is a golf iv 99
I do not think is possible, I've seen some DIY jobs which are to introduce the electronic charges inside the command keys VW Audi.
I see no other possibility.

I have a car I bought several years ago (a 2001 Mitsubishi Carisma 1.6) in the second hand that came equipped with a Cobra 7905 alarm.
It turns out that when I got the car did not have the concern to ask for the PIN for the alarm.
Although the product works perfectly and never giving me problems I am concerned not having the means of manually disable the event of damage or loss of command, so I come by to ask a question:
1 - You can get a new PIN code for my alarm? How should I proceed and what costs?
Thank you!
Peter
To request the reference pin is required on the tag inside the plant.
Simply send me by mail.
Ok, thanks for availability. However I ended up also contact the importer where ready and kindly made themselves available to help me too. I'll try to find the center to determine the number of such series.
Thanks for your support

Good afternoon,
I mounted a Cobra 3868 alarm "command originals" in Golf4, I test the alarm and noticed that with the active alarm put the key in the driver's door to open and he starts to play, so far so good, but when I put the key in the door the trunk and hang it disables the alarm,
can you help me?
besides that I find that when I activate the alarm with a door open he gives the signal to "4 bibs" or something is open, but if I leave the boot open it activates the alarm in good as if it had closed.
can you help me please?
What year is the Golf IV?
The problem that concerns about the luggage should be related to the lack of connection to their switch.
Viva, now thanks for the reply,
GOLF is the 98 is a Golf GTI with central locking and also lock the hanging (to help)
then as I do about the suitcase?

Good, I have a Golf GTI with a lock 98 in the conductor, actually can be badly installed?
is that I put the alarm because there are other key of the car and I'm not Keria is that every time there poke the key the car beeps as it only makes the driver's door,
Probably the connections are poorly done, in case the bag most likely, he says, is not having the cord attached.
In the case of central locking there is a different link that will activate the alarm after pressing the button twice and turn the lock, thus avoiding open it with the boot lock and door hanging.
Good and how can I check this situation? with the active alarm put my key in my door and shoot the door and the hanging bag and, besides not disable the alarm trigger ... will be something of alarm or central locking?
cpmts
henry
There should be no problem with the central locking but with the way the alarm calls were made.
It is very common to install alarms without connecting the wire to the trunk or the hood, finally, after assembly apressadas.E customers say they are bad for alarms which are.
I can only advise them checked the connections.
alive, I have been installed in the place where (), so the car stayed there.
the man tells me that now every time he puts his key in the door whatever the door, disable the alarm, pff tell me this is not normal for there?
pk if not, I'll get there with a screwdriver in the door (any door and trunk) road and disable the alarm,
EPA before was working fine on my door, now in no, then tell me it's okay to put have to put the alarm with remote, pff as you realize you can help me?
my contact email is removed
Thanks

At least the bag has been playing?
When you close the command by pressing a second time activates the lock?
Good evening. Congratulations for this blogue.Agora lay my doubts. I have a citroen zx 1994 with a cobra alarm 3190. I have everything working well except the central locking of doors as it does not open or close the car when I click the command. The alarm was set for me more for curoisidade.Será I made a mistake in the color of wires for the central locking? I needed your help to really be sure what the wires have to connect.
Thanks
See this alarm scheme
I have this esquema.não know is if you only have to connect 2 wires or 3 wires on the type of central locking has the car.
I think the central locking is negative, and orange wire / white and purple / white mass, then orange and violet opens closes.
Thank you for your feedback
I have a Cobra 8186 alarm originally assembled by the manufacturer of my car.
The siren is self-powered and has a 8310 reference printed on the box.
When I go into alarm, the light blinks but the siren does not make any sound. I have entered in programming mode to try to increase the sound of the siren, but never heard any sound.
When I turn on / turn off the alarm was supposed to hear the siren to give one or more rings, but that never happened.
Already checked the wire and the plug that connects the siren and seem to be good. When this is turned off the siren, the indicators start to flash immediately (as if you were to trigger the alarm)
Briefly, I think the bell does not ring.
The importer can not solve the problem. He says he can not even repair or replace that siren. Unaware of that reference. Their advice was to sell a brand new alarm system, which I think is a nonsense.
How can I test to see if the siren is faulty or not?
Can I connect the siren to a 12V source (eg car battery) to test? if so, the three terminals that exist in what I call the 12v.
The siren has some kind of repair? who can make this repair?
It is possible to buy somewhere that siren with reference 8310?
Thanks for your time
This type of alarm has not been sold in Portugal.
In principle the siren broke down, can you send me a photo of the siren?
Just to confirm, but I think I can get you a siren.
I have a GOOD ALARM NOT KNOW THE BRAND BUT WAS INSTALLED IN CORSA AND GAVE ALL RIGHT NOW I took a TECHNICAL AND RODE IN MY LANCIA ME BUT WHAT IS HAPPENING AND THAT THE ALARM NOT ACTIVE NOT LIGHT WHEN THE LIGHT IS FLASHING BUT REST OF ALL NORMAL WORKING Why is that?

Good, I have an alarm installed on my sicurtronic 101 peugeot, ñ only came with the manual, and it worked fine until the battery discharges. My problem is, when to alarm him with the command ñ makes beep sound, or when deactivated. Give the sign of the fourth turn signals, LED lights and motion sensors are activated, but the doors ñ, would they know what's going on? Thanks in advance for availability.
When it comes to doors, drive means for central locking rings when you open or not?
with the alarm armed (locked car), I leave the back window open (the glass is manual), unlock the car through that same window so the sensor can detect and ñ I open the door without touching it, it just starts playing qd sensor detecta.Por this is that I qd Cock said the alarm with their command it locks up but not usually give me the signal beep (like alarms usually do qd opens or closes the car using the command alarm), making only the signal with 4 flashers and the alarm LED flashes to signal that qo is active. Summarizing the alarm is active only for the motion sensors, and N for opening doors. I managed to explain myself. I take now to thank your reply.
It's not normal to stop receiving the alarm signals of the gates, losing the beep can happen, now played before when he opened the doors (or had not tested) also should do now.
What is the Peugeot?
yes, before the doors opened qd through the rear window with the alarm activated, he played now qo qd noticed was the beeping alarm ñ, q was tested and found just the motion sensors do qo is firing, opening the doors is q ñ . This is a peugeot 206, 2000.
Good afternoon,
I recently purchased a 1998 Golf IV.
Who said that sold me the car alarm was installed, but disabled. When I handed the key does not command gave me no alarm. She told me a key to activate the alarm, with the brand logo ZADI ( http://www.zadi.com/en/index.php ).
I looked until I found the engine a little black box with the same logo, which is the cannon of that key.
After a search here on your blog noticed that my interior LED is equal to the Bridge series.
I tested the volumetric sensors / ultrasonic of my car, as it is written in this post, and found that flashed whenever he passed in front of the arm, but the alarm never rang. In the black box said not written any reference alarm.
You may have installed on my car alarm a snake?
Will give a command to install my alarm?
Greetings
Your car has remote control for opening and closing doors?
The alarm should not be seen to refer the charges to be brand Zadi you have installed.
When I bought the car came with only one key, no remote control. Like this http://www.autokeytransponder.cn/photo/pl12390-vw_valet_transponder_key_t5_chip_inside.jpg .
I did the tests to volumetric sensors as it is in this post and responded by flashing LED's inside and is referred to here, which led me to think it was Cobra alarm, since the LED is equal to the interior of the Bridge series.
Can you tell me if there is any representative of the brand by Zadi port area?
Good afternoon. I appreciate your help if possible. I have a 2002 Laguna II equipped with an alarm source, and running through the main switch of the car. It turns out that the key broke, and I intend to disable the alarm, to have money to buy another (200 €!) However using the secondary key. 've Turned off the siren, but I can not stop the 4 turn signals when I go in progress. I have two little key, which serve someone told me to turn off the alarm, but do not know where I can do it. Thanks for your help ...
Usually in the area of the engine has a siren which puts the switch to turn off the alarm.
thanks for the help. But he had discovered. is inside the cabin, behind a bag. By chance rather very difficult to discover. a hug
