You having another alarm installed? 90% of alarm installers will remove the old on for free when putting new one in

looking to remove alarm completely rather than replace

You may have trouble getting insured if it's not cat1 equipped.

From what I can gather if you wanted to remove it you'd have to locate the 'brain' then chase all connections back, there's a fuel relay cut off integrated into the alarm and you'd probably need to get keys re coded as it's all linked with the ecu/immobiliser

yeah mines playing up, been told you can remove it totally

cheers stants for that , getting keys re-coded sounds a nightmare that's opened up another can of worms phoned Subaru and they say replace the alarm ecu and keypad and wont take it out so they can go f**k themselves absolutely useless as I thought they would be on previous experience best people to ask is the owners hence im on here haha just thought maybe someone had already had this problem and done a removal or by pass the system to get the car going , there`s just so many different answers to these sigma alarm problems , car Battery flat , key fob Battery flat , lock the door/ unlock key in ignition turn on ten times etc to reprogram the key been quoted silly money to take out alarm and fit new 1 so that's not going to happen thanks again for the reply`s guys all info most helpful

yeah its not a simple reprogram fob thing, remember vauxhalls used to be put ignition on and press the lock button twice and it will do it 

 

mine is taking ages to arm / disarm !
