October 29, 201312 yr Guys and girls, can anyone help with the following? 02:00 this morning the alarm went off for no apparent reason. I used the key to reset the alarm but noticed it wouldn't unlock the door. The immobiliser light was registering the key being pressed but the car remained locked. Tried to get into the car before work this morning to find both keys would not unlock the car, and there was not reaction from the immobiliser light. I'm effectively locked out! Anyone have any ideas or experienced the same?
October 29, 201312 yr Dead battery in car ? Not much help i know clutching at straws. What alarm do you have installed ? I take it you've tried to use the key in the lock to unlock door ?
October 29, 201312 yr Author Cheers for the replies lads, if it is the battery I'll be surprised and annoyed at how quick its died. Was perfectly fine last night at 7, then nowt this morning. Good job I love my scooby!
October 29, 201312 yr Author I gotta love it Gambit! Waited 10 years before being able to buy my first! Used to pass the Subaru garage twice a day when I was younger and always wanted one!
October 29, 201312 yr Well hopefully I know you will be mad but it's just the battery so you can live the dream and not have an electrical fault and be a nightmare. I was like that but with Evo's Had one for about 3 half months borrowed it thankfully. Looked at subaru while I was looking at cars and never looked back ;)
November 1, 201312 yr Battery's are funny things they do have a tendancy to just pack up! Can be fine then the smallest load ɑnd they go
November 4, 201312 yr i have my turbo timer on the voltage screen at all times so i can monitor the state of charge, i did once have a brand new battery go flat over 24 hours, turned out to be the new amp i fitted, the remote wire for the amp was earthing on the bulkhead when the stereo was pushed into it's cage, this left the amp on over night and caused a drain, just a possibility, if your alarm is the sigma unit there is a thread on the forum with the details of how to input codes for various things
