Car Alarm Help: Auto Watch

[MirKz]

Norbert how much would it cost me to get you to install autowatch, with remote locking (or auto lock/unlock when alarm is armed/disarmed pretty much), the window module (to put windows up when armed... thats all) and i also want window break sensors, maybe knock sensor, and ultra sonics and tilt sensor ... id also like another feature installed but will discuss that at a later date if or when i decide to go ahead with everything.

Could you please Private Message me with details on prices of how much each individual thing would be to install, and what it would cost to install the lot.

This is a serious quote as i am interested in getting an alarm system installed into my car. (Nissan R33 Skyline of course).

MirKz normally that's the 2 button one around $400, I'm going to upgrade mine into the 4 buttons one for remote engine start btw, if anyone have information about the mobile phone set up I would like to do that, that's an awesome stuff.

[kidd]

so what if remote start is illegal, same way turbotimers are illegal, anyway remote start works on manuals as well, just drop in to car stereo city in osb pk and kevin will do it 4 u, full install cost about $700 from what i recall, but thats 4 the full alarm

[3R1K]

I guess you can make it $550 with microwave sensor as well

Fane is yours with 4 buttons or 2? I guess I have to change mine

[fane]

i have a 2 button but at the moment one of the buttons does nothing...

so the right button will: put windows up, lock doors and arm alarm

and left button will start engine hopefully only after i have unarmed alarm if possible...

we gotta find someone that is willing to do it... purhaps i may learn and then do it on the side

uneekwahn,

goto www.rojone.com.au they have a mobile phone tracking system! It even gives you map coordinates/suburb where the car is, and how fast it's travelling over a mobile! ot cheap tho' (around 2k)

fane,

You can hookup auto-start on a manual, I did it with mine! The second button on the remote activates a relay that can start the car, once the car is started, the turbo timer takes over and runs for a few mins... then shuts off obviously...

This is the same relay that can open a boot release if you have one (I Don't) I didn't see the point in having it anymore so I disconnected it

Don't see why you can't do the same thing with the windows with a small timer circuit that holds the window-up buttons on for around 10sec ? Nothing's impossible.

[fane]

im so coming to your place saturday and we are doing it...

i think i might get the windows done properly tho

[MirKz]

hmmm i may have to get the alarm organised it sounds like a good idea (as currently i have a piece of crap cyclops immobiliser installed... had the thing for about a month or two and the remote is already playing up...)

[MaxAction]

Norbert, does that mean you'll do the power window lift for $125?

I'll probably give you a call tomorrow to discuss further details about the mobile phone setup

Yes, that's what it means, we just need a bit of warning and we can fit it in!

Cheers,

Norbert

any updates i'll post here...

anyone know how i can find out the model of my autowatch alarm? anywhere i can look...?

they are pretty good alarms and i cant find the actual control unit without spending more than 20mins...its up behind the dash somewhere i think...

See me at 135 Hector Street (West) we got most of the remotes in stock and will find the right one for you. Bring the 5 digit PIN with you as it is needed to program new remotes.

So How's the idea?

Guys how much is it to upgrade from 2 buttons blue series Autowatch to 4 buttons one?

I'm interested with remote start engine. Btw isn't better to lock the car and get the windows up as well as fold the mirror

[fane]

omg the mirror fold!! i forgot that!! that is so going on the list.

Just think of the replacement cost when the motors had it!

[fane]

yer good point

I guess you do realise that the change to the 4 button remote may require a change of system as well, don't you? As the extra 2 buttons need some electronic in the system to work with them.

So the question remains what system you actually have in the car right now.

[fane]

maxaction, what if you dont have the 5 digit code? i didnt come with the car when i bought it...

We then need it in the workshop to be able to recover the PIN. The PIN is important for a number of things like programming new remotes etc, but it is also handy to have if or when you don't have the use of any remote control, as with the use of the PIN you can still go home

[fane]

i'll ring the guy that i bought the car off otherwise i'll get you to do my window lift and then you can tell me the code at the same time eh?

[A§H]

hey guys, I have an autowatch alarm with the two button remote and having some problems with the alarm being set off, like when i open a door with the key when the alarm is armed it doesn't set it off but only one door does this, also if the bonnet is pooped while armed the alarm isnt set off as well. has anyone else had this problem? also is there a way to test the glass breaker sensor is working (other than throwing a brick through the window)

thanks, ash

[fane]

the guys that test all alarms have a simulated window break noise maker that these use...try getting a hold of one of them....
