Default alarm code

bought the wrx wagom recently 03 and noticed that the manual refers to a 4 digit security code. Now i dont seem to have that, is it just a case of resetting it at the dealers and aquiring a new code,
cheers

Should be at the top of your PDI cert, if not the first supplying dealer will have it on record.

Your Subaru dealer can obtain the systems original PIN, however, provided that you can disarm the system with a Radio Key, then you can re-set the 4-digit PIN to one of your own choosing yourself using the keypadat any time. Instructions on doing this can be found in the security systems Operating Instructions. If you do not have these a copy can be found at:
http://www.subaru-impreza.org/subarutalk/viewtopic.php?t=2476


When using the keypad always observe the following points:
- The PIN number should not be entered too quickly or too slowly - when a digit has been pressed the small LED built into the keypad will illuminate briefly as confirmation and only then should the next digit be entered.
If an incorrect digit is pressed or the delay between entering digits exceeds10 seconds, then the LED above the keypad will flash rapidly and the PIN attempt should be abborted and started again after 30 seconds.
Due to the small size of the keypad some users may find a rubber tipped pencil easier to use. DO NOT use the sharp tip of a ball point pen etc, or press excessively hard on the keypad as this will only damage the membrane and cause a digit to remain pressed, causing a continual incorrect PIN.


- The keypad allows only THREE PIN attempts and then will "Lock Up" if an incorrect number is entered a third time. This is a secuity feature to prevent random attemts at steeling the vehicle.

Hope this helps.
