is there anything else i can do.

i thikn the last time i looked at it it was a little rusty.

anyother solutions

thanks

can i use a mercury switch on my hood.

or will this give me alot of false alarms?

thanks

did you get the l.e.d. flash code from the alarm ? this # of flashes will indicate from the manual which zone was triggered and you can now verify if it is really the hood pin....

Relocate the pin switch, we fit all our alarm pin hood switches to a 'L' bracket mounted onto the vehicles firewall. Advantages are: it won't get rain wet, a thief can not slide a ruler or credit card in to hold it down while popping the catch, cable run is usually alot shorter and tidier, firewall grommets are usually close by and unless you are submerging the vehicle in large amounts of water-it won't rust.

We are often replacing mercury switches (as factory fitted to some Euros' over here) with pin switches- a lot better security.
