Toad immobiliser and alarm
Aaaarrrgghhh!!
Only had my van a couple of days and it has an immobiliser which I think has armed and I cant get it off.
Each time I get in I have to press the disarm button and it has started - Went to do the same tonight and nothing, but I have checked the battery is charged so I am sure that this is what it is.
I don't have any instructions as I guess it has been on there sometime so I am looking for some guidance on how to get around it.
I have tried a few combinations but keep setting off the alarm

She lives quite a way away and says she knows how to do it but only when she is sitting in the cab with the fob! She was the same when I bought it, she had to sit there to show me

Old alarm systems and immobilizers can get twitchy. I have a Toad 606i (I think) and I was never sure if it actually worked or just remotely powered the locks!

A hidden switch is a lot lot simpler and ridiculously cheap. Nothing worse than a box of electronics that thinks its smarter than you are.

Re: Toad immobiliser and alarm
Did you get the PIN code for the alarm? I'm sure you can disable a Toad A606i alarm/immobiliser using the PIN code and changing the settings via the key fob. I have all the manuals if you need them.

Unfortunately not, didn't realise I might need one when I bought the van.

Re: Toad immobiliser and alarm
Time to tear it out then. Hopefully it was installed correctly and the installer didn't butcher your wiring.
