i really do not want to go to strathfield and get charged for something that may require 10 seconds to do.

You want their expertise, they want your money....

Hope you can find your answer by other means.....

I left my car without a battery for 6 months. My alarm lost all of its settings, Shit me up the wall.

I rung up the alarm guy, it was like gonna cost me $70 and I had to drive to bondi, from my place....

After countless hours of searching, I managed to find the installation manual & instructions over the net.
Studied it and spent some time on my alarm....

back to normal.

Process took probably more than 5 hours of my time, searching for the manual, figuring out how to change settings etc.
If you can be bothered, keep searching, or else just pay them what they're trained to do, have a coffee and be done with it.

good luck.

Yeah i know, but sometimes its the effort of searching that rewards most of us on this forum, hence for having a forum and exchanging ideas and learning how to do things yourself.. if it was all too easy to just take it to the mechanic i dont think there wouldnt be much fun to forums. What alarm system do you have?

**Bludger** · 02-11-2011 10:40 AM

which car?

LOL

don't bother, I won't answer your question.

**dogcrapau** · 02-11-2011 11:19 AM

Are you in Sydney ? Does your car work without the alarm ?

If you can drive your car, I know a locksmith that could possibly re-program your keys for you.

if you need to re-program remotes you really have to re-think to yourself "how good is this alarm?"

in my professional opinion, if you have to re-program remotes and they ain't being used with a tv then i'd re-think about "wasting" your money getting it.
