Hey Folks, I have a '04 Legacy Estate. For the past few months the alarm has been driving me around the twist!
It started with the alarm constantly going off, for no apparent reason, the only way to stop this is if I lock the door with the key itself instead of remotely.
When I go to disable the immobilizer it can be hit or miss whether it will actually disable or not. I do it by turning the ignition on, pressing the fob & starting or the second way is by removing key from ignition, activating and deactivating alarm & then starting the car, but sometimes it takes 5 or 6 goes to get the alarm disabled.
It's Really bugging me now.
Initially I thought it was a door seal or something, but I've checked them all and they seem fine, same with bonnet and boot seal, all good.
I had the battery checked in Subaru garage in Waterford, they ran diagnostics as well and found nothing at fault.
Has anyone come across this before? Any way of just disabling it for once and for all? It's driving me simple.
Any advice gratefully received
Ellie
