Depends mainly on make and model and alarm. The alarm on my Vectra B went off if I didn't disarm it first.

Some Vauxhalls will sound the Alarm with the battery disconnected

If there is a battery within the alarm then Yes it will go off.

[Steve!]

but not if you disarm it! FACT

As Dave said, some do have a back up to stop people being able to disconnect the battery to help steal the car. I found this when i was at the bodyshop... I was very very loud.

You had to turn the alarm off with a key on the box, was hidden under a bung.

Some have current detection if the battery is removed, as it drops the internal battery in the alarm (if it has one) will trigger.

Bet you are glad you asked this now eh!lmaolmao

[jamied]

I suppose the easy way to find out is to try it....50/50 chance.

Unless your trying to nick a battery...lmaolmao

[Benn]

Simple answer, is it a Corsa b? If they i don't think they have them as std. If its a Clifford no it wont as long as its disalarmed.

Benn.

[Steve!]

I never insult staff!
