Hello all. I just purchased a used Nissan Pulsar and unbeknownst to me at the time, the car has an alarm system. For one reason or another the alarm had been disabled. I reconnected the system, located a valet button and after feeling my way through it some have determined that the system is in perfect working condition. I am interested in purchasing a remote control for it but can't as I'm having trouble identifying the exact model #, and without that info cannot proceed with my purchase. I've contacted several alarm system/remote control retailers and they have told me that they can't help me unless I can supply them with these details. Any ideas???

Here's some of the physical characteristics of the brain.

The case is embossed with the word MICRO on the front.

There are two stickers on the back which are quite faded and thus can't read all the info on them but here's what I've been able to read.

One sticker has two sets of numbers of which one appears to be "1234567890" and underneath them is "0001110011" and underneath that is "CAT"

The other sticker has this "VER:2.1"

On the back of case are the connections and DIP switch settings of which are as follows.

RED / BLACK (+) LED OUTPUT

YELLOW (+) INGNITION SWITCHED

ORANGE (-) STARTER KILL OUTPUT

VIOLET (+) POSITIVE DOOR TRIGGER

VIOLET/WHITE (-) SENSOR TRIGGER INPUT

GREN (-) DOOR TRIGGER INPUT

GRAY (-) SECOND CHANNEL OUTPUT

BLUE (-) VALET SWITCH INPUT

bROWN (+) SIREN OUTPUT 3A MAX

RED (+) 12 VLT CONSTANT POWER INPUT

WHITE (+) LIGHT FLASH OUTPUT

BLUE/WHITE (-) UNLOCK OUTPUT

GREEN / WHITE (-) LOCK OUTPUT

SWITCH SETTINGS

1 ON-30 SECONDS LIGHT

2 ON-5 SECONDS DOOR LOCK

3 ON-5 SECONDS DOOR UNLOCK

4 0FF-SIREN FLASHING

5 ON-DOOR WILL LOCK IN PASSIVE

6 OFF-SIREN CHIRP OFF

7 ON-ACTIVE ONLY

8 OFF-ARMING AT 64 SECONDS

9 LOOP-CUT FOR CURRENT SENSING

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for responding kjerry. Yes, I have done an exhausting search under Micro alarms and in doing so have found and visited Micro's website, downloaded most if not all of their literature, and even sent them an email requesting assistance. To my knowledge they've never responded, and upon viewing the literature and comparing it to the unit have determined that none of applies. I obtained an unused remote control from a friend and modified the circuit traces to match the trace configuration on the brain's mother board and this didn't work. I have spent alot of time scanning the net for clues, ideas, etc. and still have been unable to solve this one.

You can buy a brand new basic alarm system for about the same price you would pay for a replacement transmitter anyway.

Also, since you alsready have one installed putting in a new one will be easy.
