Thread: A/M Security?

Looks like any of a million cheap / crap alarm/immobilisers. They all use black wires so it's not obvious which wire goes where. Usually installed by butchers who cut and shut the wiring harness with anything from scotchloks to solder wrapped in cheap PVC tape.

Your best bet is to open it up and see if there are any manufacturer logos/tell-tales on the PCB, google and contact them (if they're still in business). Otherwise, follow every wire, cross check it against the vehicles wiring diagram and try and undo the damage.

Usually wires to the indicators, horn and in series with either the ignition or starter motor.

yes its a generic bit of rubbish, prolly not needed depending on local requirements for vehicle alarms.

Personally for an older Defender going old school with a pedal lock or steering lock would be more reliable.

I can drive the vehicle as it has not activated or anything but I certainly plan to trace it and remove it. Was just curious if you all had seen this one before.

Or, with my County, just leave the transfer case in neutral - not many will be able to find the T/C lever, let alone know what it does!
