After disconnecting my battery, when i try to unlock the car using my remote, it beeps and unlocks the doors for a split second before it locks them again. If i use the key to get in, the alarm goes off, but when i'm in the car, when i push the unlock button on the door panel it does the same thing. The alarm and immobilizer were already in the car when i bought it so i dont really have any information :/

any tips or advice will be awesome as i have no idea what i'm doing haha

thanks :)

Sounds like a locking issue. However expecting an immediate answer may be a bit much given you posted within an hour of the first post.

Some of us only look at this area every few days.

What alarm is installed?

do you have more than 1 fob to control it?

might be the button is stuck.

Can you start and drive the car at all? what happens.?

How long have you had the car? Did this just start happening? Something spill on the fob or alarm box?

I wonder if a flattening battery in fob can cause false signals..

i only have one fob and its only happened since disconnecting the car battery.

no idea what the alarm is, it was in the car when i bought it around 15 months ago (ish)

Nothing has spilt or damaged either at all.

The car runs normally, but even when i hit the unlock switch, the same thing still happens :/

    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.   
    • First thought is to use a ram mount (to hold the ipad) + windscreen suction mount. The arms on the ram mount can be as long as you like, should be able to position the ipad pretty well with that setup.
