meta 357t alarm problems

went to go mmc this morning, go to get bike out and it wont disarm :fight:

put fresh batteries in one of the fob's (both not working), still no joy,

tried to enter disarm could, on/off wait for flashes ect, still no joy

alarm fuse is ok, bike fuses look ok but ill need to have a closer look,

sale yamaha said to check fuses "but it is 8 years old after all" :fight:

and that'll be about 85 to get it removed!

any ideas anyone before i get the scissors and a hammer out??!!!

 

Yeah, do you have the paperwork and the 4 digit code for the alarm?
If I recall correctly you had to turn the ignition on and off (to represent the numbers in the code) to disable the alarm.

 

Yeah thats right....

Ive had loads of problems with my m357t and nearly had it taken out yesterday. Its remaining in for the meantime though as (at the moment) ive figured all the problems out and should be able to get it working properly again. One more problem and its coming out! :censored:

Not sure what your problem is though, but in all honesty id get it removed, only ever known problems with them

 

I had one installed on my CBR600F, also had an Optimate and had no problems with the alarm in the 3 years I had it.
Wev - Maybe your bike is also trying to tell you that the battery is needing replacing soon?

 

it gets the odd blast on the optimnate, plugged in just now, been throught the on/off routine, either am doing it wrong :S or its just fooked!

 

I've got one fitted on mine and haven't had any problems. Hope you manage to sort it.

 

i had a meta 357t on mine bike and the alarm never made a sound when i bought it,i bought a second hand one on ebay just took the screws out the old siren/imobiliser unit and swapped it for the one of ebay worked perfect straight away didnt even need to recode the fobs.

 

have tried putting code in umpteen times still nothing :fight:

its immobilised but not alarmed, tho i've never known it to be alarmed!

im about to start breaking things but fear havin a completly fooked R1 at the end, so does anyone know someone that'll come out and remove????

cheers

 

My mate owns a garage/breakers in bolton and he has a friend that was going to do mine. You want me to find out if he does call outs and how much?

 

Remove the alarm, useless pieces of shit

 

I know my mate has got a new r6 and something like that happened to him and he got told to put the master key in and it worked (the red one) but i don't know what alarm it has on it.

 

this happened last year on my blade when i had the engine out to re shim it wev so i just removed it not that hard to do
i'll remove it for you if you want just let me know ive pmd you my number

 

thanks for comin out for a look today mate, got an auto electrician coming tomorrow to pull it out, quoted 40 so still not a bad price

 

lus: lus: lus: i had one when i bought my gixxer thou from dk's, then when i was at the rocket centre it decided to try and set my bike on fire after it wouldnt disarm ( FOG WILL REMEBER THIS lol ) so i was stuck there untill the guys at the centre disarmed it and re-wired it (for free) so i could get home, when i got home i took it off completely, had a look and it had all melted inside where the big conector blocks fit together, very lucky really as when i tried taking the invoice that the rocket centre gave me (to try and get the money back off dk's) they said it wasnt their problem as they dont cover auxillary's that were already fitted to the bike when i bought it, so in other words if the bike had gone up in flames i would have been fucked, the moral of the story is replace your meta alarm and DONT BUY ANYTHING FROM DK MOTORCYCLES. rant over lol

 

all done and in the bin! good lad, even a biker, which is always a bonus

 

After thinking the alarm was all well, i had some running issues and so it got stripped to check. Turns out, out of the 3 different symptoms ive got, all creating a different problem....they are all the alarm!!

Its coming out...
