No Visual Signal When Alarm Triggered

NOTE: The alarm cannot be triggered until 10 seconds after activation.


(Step H1) Functional check on turn signals




- Ignition on.




- Turn on the left and then right hand indicator.
The left or right indicator should flash.

If both are working:
- Continue with step H2.

If either does not work:
- Investigate left or right indicator.

(Step H2) Checking the fuse




- Ignition off.
- Remove (fuse 17) from the fuse box and check that it is undamaged.




- Connect a voltmeter between ground and the fuss retainer.

If the reading is correct:
- Continue with step H3.

If reading deviates:
There is a break in the lead between the battery and the fuse in the fusebox.
- Rectify the fault or renew the lead.

(Step H3) Checking the voltage feed to the visual alarm




- Ignition off.
- Renew the fuse in the fusebox.




- Disconnect the alarm control module (C/F).




- Connect a voltmeter between item 30 (base F) and item 31 on the alarm relay base.
The voltmeter should read battery voltage.

If the reading is correct:
- Continue with step H4.

If the reading deviates:
There is a break or a short to ground in the lead between the fuse and the alarm relay base item 30 (base F).
- Rectify the fault or renew the lead.
Replace the control module.

H4 Checking the visual alarm
- Ignition off.




Bridging L:
- Bridge item 30 (base F) and item L on the alarm relay base.
The left hand turn signal should light.

Bridging R:
- Move the bridge to between item 30 (base F) and item R.
The right hand turn signal should light.




If both are working:
There is most likely a fault on the control module.
- Follow the procedure described in Alarm Wiring. Fault Tracing Alarm Wiring

If either does not work:
There is a break between either the alarm relay base item L and the left hand turn signal or between the alarm relay base item R and the right hand turn signal.
- Rectify the fault or renew the lead
Replace the control module.
