Got a used remote fob from US Ebay and tried to programme it using the directions on another thread. No luck. Also realised that when locking using the key I never get flashing indicators. Can I assume that the alarm system is not working? Does the remote fob work only if the alarm system is working? What should I do to, a) find out if my alarm system is working and, B) get my remot fob to work?

Have been looking at threads all evening and can't find an answer. Did find one (which I now can't find again!) which mentioned getting an after market alarm fitted with remote locking facility. Any suggestions?

Mine is an LS400 Mk3.

Cheers,

Jim

To check your alarm,open a window,lock the car as usual,wait 30 sec, open a door via the open window alarm should sound
