Xantia indicators constantly on

Apr 14, 2005 4 Replies

Hi,



I have a problem with a Xantia 2.0l petrol, 'M' reg,



When the remote keyfob button is pressed the indicators come on and stay on, not flashing but on permanently. The engine starts as usual but the indicators remain on continuously.



The only solution is to keep pressing the keyfob button on and off and eventually the indicators go off.



Have tried disconntecting the battery but it doesn't help. And the same problem is found when using the key in the door rather than pressing the button.



Any suggestions appreciated!

A dealer will tell you there is a fault with the alarm and he can fit a new one for about £400. There is a switch under the bonnet, by the windscreen wiper motor. Operated by the ignition key. Switch it off. Makro do a cheap and cheerful alarm for £20 plus. EasyFit. Has remote key fob and does all the usual, based on voltage drop and impact. DaveK.

The switch only turns off the siren, it doesn't disable the alarm.

There's a fuse (in the box under/by the steering wheel) that can be removed to do this.

immediately and press the interior sensor m disable button ..... usually on the steering column. everything flaashes wildly then goes off this disables the alarm ( its in the manual) steve the grease
