QUOTE(gadgets2us @ Feb 11 2012, 03:26 PM) Just realized that our alarm system has the beeping/buzzer function to signal arming and disarming alarm. Did some research and managed to successfully program mine with the buzzer function wowww... this really works? i gotta go try it then... thanks very much bro! i've always wanted to enable/install a "BEEP" sound for locking, and "BEEP BEEP" sound for unlocking our doors. even considered installing a buzzer once, at a car mod shop (the technician advised me not to do this, as it will involve cutting into existing alarm cabling). HM purposely deactivated the function, not sure why, and SCs reluctant to activate it for me. Asked me to go to Cobra, to get it activated and they do not want to be involved if anything wrong were to happen. Went to Cobra Tmn Tun, but the technician forgot to asked me to bring the PIN number for the alarm, which is needed to program. So went back and did some research, got this dealer's manual and DIY it and it was successful. Something to share with you guys Directions to program our Cobra Bridge 4400 system: http://www.m-sjoberg-ab.se/pdf/Manual/4400...l_06DE2399B.pdf Take note : Pg 25 : List of Programmable Functions, Pg: 28 : How to Program , Pg 29 : Functions Tables. For those who are lazy to read, here are brief instructions to do it. 1) Disarm your car 2) open driver's door, 3) Click open your bonnet, 4) put in your key switch it to ON, wait 15 seconds, 5) Tricky Part: KEY IN PIN Number @ the control panel button next to your ignition switch (Cobra PIN provided by HM when they handed over the keys to you), On how to key in Pin, please refer to the PIN Card behind. IF SUCCESSFUL, you can see the INDICATOR LIGHTS blink once. Else if you do not see it, take out key and wait 5-10 seconds before repeating Part 4. 6) Once you see the INDICATOR LIGHTS blink, press the control panel button and hold it (Approx 3 Seconds) till you hear a BEEEEEP continuously. (ok now its activated). You can let go now. 7) To adjust the volume of the Buzzer function, press the control panel button again to adjust from volume 0 - volume 7 (being the loudest). Press once to upgrade from volume 1 to 2, press once again to 2-3 and so forth, once volume has reached volume 7, the next press would be silent, meaning its volume 0. Adjust to liking. 8) After adjusting, remove key. close door, close bonnet. 9) Test your alarm now.... ! I'm loving the buzzing function now, too bad our alarm does not have the auto lock function, else it definitely would be programable. Not too sure about the volumetric sensors too. According to Cobra technician, our exact alarm model is Cobra 4465 (not too sure if its the right model tho), perhaps do more research and see what can be done from there. Here is the brochure for our alarm and its functions: Cobra Bridge 4400 Brochure Technically, if HM is complaining bout warranty of the alarm if they hear the sound, we can just switch it off anytime we want when we send it to service or if we want to get something replaced. so if this really does work, i'll be super happy |

Did some research and managed to successfully program mine with the buzzer function OK looks like I'm stuck at the "tricky part" (your step #5). When I start keying in my 4-digit PIN, after I key in the 2nd number, the indicator lights blink THREE times. Then the control panel button lights up. It only goes away if I take out my ignition key.

Have tried this over the last 15 mins... can't seem to enter the whole 4-digit PIN properly and see the indicator blink ONCE. Hmmm... anyone got any tips? |

QUOTE(gadgets2us @ Feb 11 2012, 08:05 PM) Each time you key in your number, let's say your pin 1234, you press 1x (you'll see a red light while u press it), then you'll see a 1.5second red light, start pressing immediately 2x ( you'll see 2x red light blink). And so forth. damn.... its like defusing a bomb. OK thx bro... will retry again tmrw Count the number of red light blinks as u press your digits. Missing the red blink means u have not pressed the button correctly. Takes a few tries to get it right. Make sure u do not pause too long between digits. Not more than 2 seconds. |

QUOTE(eltaria @ Feb 12 2012, 12:43 PM) Was trying the alarm guide. does your engine have to be running/on (i.e. start the car) when you do this? or just put the ignition key to either slot number I or II is enuff?I cant to get it right though... 1) after open door, and bonnet, we leave those two open? after click the pin, 1234. press x, blink, press 2x, blink, press 3x, blink, press 4x blink. after press X, do we start to press '2x' while the red light is blinking? or immediately after the in between digits red light is off? I can't seems to get it right >.< *** Got it Leave doors, and bonnet open. After press X, wait a bit, it'll red light.. wait a bit again before u press the 2nd number. I was too anxious in pressing it the 1st few rounds. Can't press the number again immediately after u see the 'registering blink' Great tips, thanks! We got a free upgrade! Hahaha.. like easter eggs! **UPDATE** OK, finally managed to get it enabled.... YESSSSSS! Engine doesn't have to be running - put key in, turn to slot #2 enough. Works very nicely - get beep sound when locking/unlocking This post has been edited by infinitium: Feb 12 2012, 01:50 PM |

IMHO, putting full-syn oil is unnecessary for 5k oil change intervals.
might as well just stick to semi-syn, save $$, and get peace of mind yr oil is flushed out regularly every 5km. to me, the performance increase you get from full-syn does not justify the additional price we pay, especially 1 of the reasons many of us buy hybrid cars for fuel savings. |
