It's not the mic you need to worry about, the tiny spy camera in the speedo is MUCH more intrusive. Can you see it, they usually hide it in the 0 of the 140kph.......

But seriously, yeah it's a handsfree mic for a phone kit :whistling:

you're not referring to the 2 shock sensors that are located on either side of the dashboard?

if so, then you also have the optional dealer-fitted alarm with optional shock sensors that was an addition to the OEM immobiliser

it doesn't sound when the car is armed but is very loud if you try to open the door manually with the car armed!

I've got the sensors but it doesn't go off when I open the door when the car is locked. Is there a way to turn it on (and off)?

you have a mongoose alarm fitted to that car and I dare say its a M80G. the sensor you showed is the glassbreak sensor.

SCORP,

do as waz suggested. yours does work as I set the thing off a few times.

try arming it, wait a minute or so, then open with the key in the lock..

if it doesn't work then i have no idea sorry!

but the sensors are definatly a dealer option

setting the alarm then opening the door with the key would disable the alarm (if correctly installed). if you want to try it, set the alarm while you're inside, wait a few seconds then open the door. that should set it off. the dealer option system appears to have a motion sensor - at least on the one that I have. when armed any movement inside the car will set it off.

based on the dealer fitted unit that I pull from these cars daily putting the key in the door and opening it sets it of. likewise does tapping on the glass with a coin. the sensors are ultrsonic based and the alarm will go off if you leave the windows down in wind as well.

installation of these things leaves a LOT to be desired. 90% of them are in with scotchlocks and when I get them they are usually falling apart.

max,

sorry for the hijack.

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
