well M2RV H i do have the option to add ulta sonic sensors or a boot lock thing so i wonder if its that ur taking about. just had a look on the manual it says that the negative part could be added on to any eath source so if i connect the postive to the red which goes to the battery and the earth 1 to a bolt of my chosing should that work? | |

if you just take the pos and neg of the alarm, surely that will always be live, since its directly taken from the battery? :boggle: | |

so wat u mean to say is that where the alarm's red wire is the postive one cut a little bit and stick it on that? and the side to the negative part of the battery? | |

hi guys i have a cheapish alarm but it doesn't have the option with a flashing led. I bought 1 and now i want to wire it. Where can i wire it so that when the car is off it turns on and when car is on it goes off. I knw i can wire it stright to the battery but then its always on. Any help would be great cheers |
