They should be able to chirp no problem. If you press the second button after the first (within about 30 seconds) it disables the internal ultrasonics, in case ou have a dog or summat in it. If you press it when the alarm is disarmed it usually acts as a panic alarm and sets it off immeadiately.

any idea how to make it chirp on arming and disarming

cheers for your info

[trigger123]

still not figured it out yet how to make it chirp

i have just tried pressing the second button while ignition was on and it made a long high pitched noise and led flashing

ooopps what have i done

[Chameleon]

not to worry, thats just the panic alarm (bet you did too!) If you get hijacked or summat.
Best bet for the chirp is to talk to a proper alarm fitter who shouldbe able to tell you if and how you can do it. It is probably a dip switch on the control unit. DO NOT MESS WITH THESE IF THEY ARE THERE!!!!!!!

[Haynzee]

find the control unit and flick about with the switches

i think i have the same alarm on mine, i'll have a word with a mate on mine (alarm installer who fitted it)
There is a programming mode you can go into where you can tell it how loud to chirp.
Think its something like leave the bonnet and drivers door open then enter you pin code on the button (button is on the light that flashes) think default code it press once.. wait for one flash then press once more (do this so the code you enter is 1,1,1,1= cobra default)
for all of these modes to work each sensor wire must be connected to the correct sensor.

I'll try to get more info.

[fastcarmaniac]

Right spoken to him so here goes...

Open bonnet and drivers door.
Ignition on.
Press and hold big remote button till indicators flash then release button.
keep pressing the big button to turn beep volume up and small button to turn volume down.
When you get in to the level you want shut the bonnet, indicators should flash for approx five secs.
Then ignition off.

It should now be set to the volume you selected.

ok?

cheers for trying anyways

[trigger123]

still needing help on alarm

[fastcarmaniac]

my mate the alarm fitter said all cobras are the same to program, try the way i said before and make sure you follow it to the letter!

[Chameleon]

Just make sure you aint got a dicky bonnet switch like mine.

[trigger123]

ok i will have another bash tomorrow i will check bonnet catch too

cheers

[trigger123]

right, this is what i did
i checked bonnet switch and is working fine,i tested it by opening bonnet and trying to set alarm and it gave a long beep to say something is open.

so i left it open and opened the drivers door and switched ignition on and held big button on remote for ages and ages and no indicators flashed?

i tried several things and the only thing i have come up with is

if i turn ignition on and off 3 times the led inside flashes but still doesnt do anything on the big button?

any other help any one?

[Harvey]

trigger123 I have a Cobra alarm and manual so I'll dig it out and scan the bit you need, drop me a PM as a reminder though as I know I'll forget. Is it the round remote fob you have the green (ish) buttons, one big one small?

[Jovid]

Hi Harvey

Thank you very much for your help, I didn't get you, what does PM means?
