Cobra Alarm problems

Postby transbenny » Fri Mar 23, 2018 2:56 pm

Hey guys,

I've been having a few issues with my alarm going of at random times, In the middle of the night mostly,much to my neighbours pleasure.

I checked the battery today with the meter and the front batt was 11.8 so its low (been Sat for a couple of weeks) it could be just that right? As the aux batt is the front one?

Thanks in advance

Yes, I believe the Cobra activates if it detects a drop in battery voltage :(

mine went loopy when the battery was almost flat, couldnt shut it up so i ended up taking the siren off and lobbing it in the car wrapped up in a sealed plastic tub lol

Lol thankfully I could sh*t mine off, bloody things.

I've charged the batt bits it's dropping below 12 again so she knackered. Are start a separate thread but what's the best batt for the front one ?
