Default Disable indicators when setting alarm?

Looks like the relays on my alarm are playing up as the indicators sometimes stick on when setting or disarming the alarm. I'm not that fussy about having them flash as I always check the doors after setting them anyway.

Is it possible/easy to disable the indicator flashing?

Cheers
Richard.

You can remove the fuse of the alarm. But that will disable the auto door locks as well.

Thanks Ryn. I might try and give a local Scooby garage a call and see if there's a way I can do it without disabling the auto-door locking (or the alarm function itself).

Although the indicator flash cannot be turned off by programming, it is possible to disable the indicators by cutting the indicator supply wire (your dealer should know the location of this wire), however be warned that the indicators will not flash when the alarm is triggered either.
