I posted the following in the Electronics forum but I thought I'd post it here too...any thoughts? Thanks...
I was going through stuff that my car's PO left in the glove box and I came accross a BMW remote of some sort...the BMW part number is 88 88 1 600 205. My car has an LED on the console and siren in the engine compartment so I assumed it had a factory alarm. So I replaced the battery in the remote and went pressing away...nothing happened. So I searched the forum and found a doc on setting up the alarm...no luck either. My car does have the lill thing in the trunk that says prewired for security system.
So I pulled the glove box out and saw the installed alarm was an Ungo MS 9000#R by Clarion. Does anyone know how to test this thing out to see if it's working? There was a shock sensor in there too. However, I am yet to find an Ungo remote.
Is this alarm system any good? I mean would you all go out and hunt down a remote for it? Or should I just replace it. The Clarion site has no info on this unit...
Any help, direction or comments are greatly appreciated.
