you need to get that to be 12vots.
If you have ground, and hook up all 3 of the red wires to battery, the antenna is plugged in, unit should respond, you HAVE to have a power issue. Run all the power wires to the battery to check it out

I am in the UK, car is Japanese. I will plug all 3 wires into battery in the morning as it is late here and I can't see outside.
So you think that there is not enough power coming from the 12v constant I found at the ignition??

also as you will all be asleep by then...
Should that solve the problem should the alram automatically function from the fob and the valet or do I have to programme it. The install manual just goes on about programming. It doesn't say now turn on...
Cheers for all your help

Even though it is the dead of night and freezing cold, I have been out to retest my 12V constant wires.
The one that is loosing power is the 12V constant to the Harness. It drops from 12v at the ignition 12v constant connection to .06v just before it reaches the harness after the factory installed fuse.
Tomorrow I will reroute this to the battery.
Why would there be such a great loss of power?
There are other wires also taking power from the ignition harness to power the relay would this be the reason?

got it - the connections in the scotch clips where not sound.
So power is now going into the brain, a little red little lights up on the shock (movement) sensor and and NO MORE!
Key fob as before - command transmitted to vehicle command page not received.

I have fitted a revenger siren to my alarm which is not functioning however that's another issue. I do remember something about the extra wiring and can't find the leaflet that came with the siren.
There are 3 wires:
black - earth
red - brain of alarm
and
another black which goes from the siren to the siren - should I ignore this? or cut it or what?
Cheers

I realize the remotes come preprogrammed, but it couldn't hurt to try reprogramming it just to make sure.
Also, are you sure your antenna is plugged into the "brain"? I know I disconnected mine during my install and forgot to plug it back in. Wasted a half an hour trying to figure that one out...
