But even if its out of sight, if you've got a little valet button under your panel, and can follow the two wires back somewhere, you'll find the module pretty quick?!

maybe... :P

I'm not going to disclose how I do these cars just that I do them.

So maybe the best way to install an alarm is not to install a valet switch, or flashing LED, and pull all the dash out and hide the module well away, and tap into the wiring loom up under the dash, not near the ignition barrell...

i have M80G with microwave sensors, or is it ultrasonic? f**k i cant remember. Anyway dont think i've ever had false alarm with it, but if u leave the window down and a someone sticks a finger inside the car, they go off! Wind would probably do it too i imagine if the window was down and it was armed. I like it! :sleep:

  • 1 month later...

bought the m80G off ebay for $215, its alright, nothing special to me. However, when you turn off the car after 30secs it will automatically immobilise the engine with a small chirp. Damn this feature is VERY annoying to me and whoever buys this alarm

THis meaning it wont effect my turbo timer which is set to 30sec?

Chris i think i read u install them but think your in sydney... Are these mongoose alarms off ebay same stuff you would use or is their a catch to buying them off these guys?

HI ALL,

I have an M80s which has been working fine with my Greddy turbo timer until i decided to see if it was possible to lock the doors while the turbo timer was shutting down. Since then the central locking hasn't worked when i arm my skyline. Has this happened to anyone before? Or is it possibly just bad timing and has nothing to do with the fact that i tried to lock doors as timer was shutting down and is more to do with the central locking motor giving up (dying) on me?

does it work otherwise? IE if you disarm/rearm will it lock the car?

HI CHRIS,

Thanks for replying so quickly. Appreciate it. No, central locking no longer works, manual locking only,ie. key. Turbo timer works fine as all ways so does alarm, minus the c/locking side of things any way. Whats happening is that when i switch off ignition turbo timer kicks in for its 30 second cool down, 30 secs after that alarm imobilises engine then I hit button 1 to arm, alarm is now activated as usual just doesn't want to lock doors any more???

CHEERZ...HUNTZ.

depends. from that it would appear that the rod has slipped. other thing of course is a blown fuse onthe alarm- IF that is the case I would look at the wiring going to teh actuator BEFORE replacing the fuse.

Thanks Chris will look into it and let you know how I go. Please excuse my igrorance, but actuator? (sorry mate for asking what is probably a very self explanitorary question.)

CHEERZ.

PS. are there two rods? ie. lock and unlock, likewise with fuses?

Chris mate you're a bloody champion!!!

Cheerz heaps for all your assistance on this. Sliding performance has a great picture of an actuator which I came across while looking for bitz'n'pieces so now with your help and their flick I know what i'm looking for.

    • Fuel tank is out. Looks pretty bloody good under (ie above) the fuel tank.  Amazing how good the factory e-coat holds up in the hidden areas.  No where near as much body deadener to get rid of as the front but still not looking forward to it!  Shit of a job.  I'm thinking I might grab a needle scaler and give that a go before I attack it with the angle grinder and wire wheel which is how I did the front 2/3's of the car.  Feels good to be working on the car again but who knows how long it will last!  Hopefully I can get it further forward than where it was prior to this last block of work when I decided to go back 10 steps further down the rabbit hole from where i already was! The problem is, I'm realising how hard it will be to repair and paint the bumpers, which cannot be put back on the car, and have a good paint match. There are also areas where it would be VERY hard to hide the new paint where it transitions from old paint. Like this- There is only one way to do that perfectly and I really dont want to have to do what that means I would have to do... 🤦‍♂️
    • Pretty sure the factory assembly doesn't have any gasket at all, just RTV.
    • I will get a couple cans for sure thanks, I do have 2lt fish oil to spray around the car already.
    • Thought I’d post pics of the packages for those interested. The premium package is #16. Remote start, security with tilt sensor and remote and backup battery, auto fold mirrors and door illumination.    Can post up pics of all the factory options and images from the factory options brochure if people are interested. I have all the dealer books etc for all rv37 models.
