Corsa-B.uk - Vauxhall, Opel and Holden Corsa B Owners Club

this morning i went out to my car and it was unlocked for some reason. I probably forgot to lock it but i'm sure i didn't. anyway when i got in the car i heard a rapid clicking and when i started the car it stopped. when i got to work, i got out the car, locked it and the clicking started again. there was no indicator sign on the dash but the hazards were going at like twice the speed outside and it wouldnt stop. i unlocked the car then locked it again and it stopped this time. it seems like it's the alarm going off but there's no sound? it's a 1.6 sport. any ideas whats going on? thanks

maybe theres a short in ur central locking system? Hence it happens after u lock/unlock the car....maybe it sumin to do with the relays? im no expert on it so it just a guess, but i could be kinda right. Guess we'll have to wait and see what other have got to say.

sounds tome like some little badger tryed stealing it old skool check your hazards

how do you mean old skool? and my hazards are fine. when i put them on it just flashes twice as fast and the clicking is likewise

i say old skool cos they take the hazzerd button out and put it in like upside down to short it so they can nick the car they used todo it on all the novas that could be your problem just take it out and check the wires

lol...yeah i read ur previous comment i didnt quite get wat u meant. But yeah i've heard of that problem before. Does it still rollover from corsa A to corsa B though?

im not to sure mate i think it does eaither way its worth checking just incase

yeh that is a very common way novas r nicked...fink u can do it on old minis n beetles as well.somethin to do with creatin power by shortin it..which means u can then bump it.

yeah thats right mate.

aw wicked! never knew you could do that. i heard about something similar on old skool fiestas

Ah thats it, everyone knows how to nick our cars now!!

lmao not mine matey iv got a secret weapon only way there taking mine is by eaither flinstoneing there arse or towing it

lol...u got a key switch pre ignition aswell hidden in the car/bonnet area? Either that or fuel pump cutoff. Or u take out the crank arm?

hehee man with a plan i see uv thought this thru jar jar

lol..yeah...but to be honest they are the most commonly done things in terms of "secret" immbilisers. Or maybe just the plain obvious...got a steering wheel lock, handbrake and gear knob lock and 4 wheel clamps!?! Rofl
