hey everyone.. didnt want to put this in the how to because its a bit short...
anyways... when i got my car, i thought id sit in it and see if the alarm sensors where working.. i sat inside very still for over 1min.. when i moved the only thing that happened was the indicators started flashing and no siren went off.. i went to peugeot and they said £66 to fix it.. so i didnt do it because i was a bit broke at the time... a few weeks passed and yesterday afternoon before going to work i opened the hood to check water levels but only opulled the latch and didnt actually open the hood.. then i remember i needed a screwdriver for something so decided to get one from my house..
when i went to remote lock the car it sudenly beeped.
somehow, having the hood unlatched and remote locking the car activated the siren again..
saved me £66.. i was pretty chuffed
i searched for ages for a way to fix this without going to peugeot.. had no luck.. so i hope this helps anyone with the same problem
