Thread: help needed!! D2 flat battery, alarm screaming

Have you tried disarming it when you have the other battery connected? if the battery went flat when the alarm was activated, it will still be activated when you use jumper leads with another battery.
Hope this helps.

Yes tried this but the fob wouldn't de-activate the alarm

Exactly just dont know how i'm ment to disarm it.

Not sure if i have to recharge the main battery and then try. just seems like there should be an easy way.

Would hate to be isolated with a locked car and flat battery

EASY
Just press a button on the keyfob,both will shut it up.
Has your D2 got ACE????,if so I may have the electricity thief sorted,works in mine.

No ACE. Just been parked for a month. Locked

cheers

Pull the horn relay in the fuse panel under the bonnet.
Once everything is normal and charged etc,ie normality resumes.
MY FIX TO THE POWER LOSS.
When you shut the D2 down listen for a clicking sound every 10 seconds or so from the underbonnet fuse/relay panel.Remove the relays 1 at a time till you find the clicking stops.
In my case it was the ACE relay clicking.
The clicking stops the D2 electronics from "going to sleep" Since I started pulling the relay when its not being used the flat battery issue has gone.
GOODLUCK

i think my flat was just caused because of it being locked for so long with the alarm active. The battery wasn't that good to start with.

just need to know how to get it started now so i can recharge it at home. Or replace the battery if it wont recharge

cheers

Try the fob again,you will definately need it to work to start it.Pulling the horn relay will only shut it up,makesure the keyfob hasnt gone flat too!!!!!
