Hi all, the new lupo has an autowatch 88rl that done nothing but arm dis arm as there is no central locking. however i would like to fit 2 electric motors to lock/unlock the doors but im not sure if this alarm will allow the use of motors or even support cl. anyone got any info? i have emailed the company but not sure if they will get back to me. cheers.
Phone them and ask for somebody in their Technical department. When I had problems with my Autowatch immobilser I called first and got a woman who gave the number for a completely useless Scottish Sales agent. Out of frustration I called back and asked for someone with technical knowledge and got an excellent guy who sorted it out for me. He had a South African accent but I can't remember his name. The alarms are made in South Africa. Tel No. 01732 886777 Vidfletch
Autowatch are ok i use them for the Transit upgrade alarm and no problems will check with rep if this has CDL on board but i doubt it although it should have a neg whilst armed wire you can add a cdl module to Ian Quote from Google:- Anti-Hijack supported Autowatch 88 RL Alarm system with optional single-circuit Immobiliser The Autowatch 88RLi security system incorporates several sensing systems to protect your Vehicle. Each time the system is turned on, these sensing systems start to monitor your vehicle and if unauthorised interference is detected, the alarm system will be triggered. The Autowatch 88RL also features an optional immobilisation circuit that can be used to increase the level of protection where your vehicle already has an immobiliser fitted, or to disable the starter circuit (for example) if your vehicle has no immobiliser. The alarm light (LED) fitted on your dashboard indicates the status of the alarm and also serves as a strong visual deterrent to thieves. The Autowatch 88RL alarm system includes ultrasonic movement sensors, which are able to detect movement inside your vehicle, or a window being broken. For added protection to your vehicle, a combination of sensors may be installed with the ultrasonic sensors of this alarm system, such as an impact or infrasonic sensor. For enhanced personal safety, the system can be programmed to automatically lock your car doors when driving. LOOKS GOOD :-)
I to have an auto watch alarm(160RLi/t) which is ok but the siren has stopped working althigh everything else works, does anyone know if there is a fuse somewhere that works this and may need changed..... sorry for asking on someone elses thread Scott
from what i have seen of mine, i would follow the wire back to the alarm unit and make sure its not broken, failing that it may have got water in it?
thanks, i will try that but is there a fuse that could also cause this problem or doesn't the alarm have any fuses? scott
well i called that number and the guy was very helpful!!! the alarm has a twin flew brown/brown white low neg pulse so a cl mod and locks can be fitted. i know what ill be doing later. cheers guys!
Just to update you guys managed to install new door lock motors and hook it up to the alarm! well happy just have to find out how to disable anti hi jack and it will be spot on (good idea but just annoying as you have to turn the ignition off for the doors to unlock again)
another update, managed to find out how to turn off/ on anti hijack. Big thanks to a Chap called Terry At Autowatch. basically. dis arm the alarm turn igg on turn igg off 1 flash turn igg back on turn igg off 2 flash back on igg off 3 flash back on igg off led will flash rapidly - if not repeat above. turn off igg 3 flash back on turn off 3 flash back on you will hear 2 beeps job done - hi jack disabled.
I have to say, ive got an autowatch on my goof, and i cant fault it at all, and the led is a blue flasher that is seriously bright!
