Default HELP NEEDED - re 02 wrx immobiliser

HELP!
We have an 02 wrx as standard , on occasions the car alarm will not reset and let me start the engine , normally an led on the dash flashes when the fob is pressed , sometimes it wont , then after maybe 5 or 10 minutes it will ? is it something Im doing wrong or is it a fault . advice appreciated
also - in the small compartment near the steering wheel is a keypad is this the alarm reset or my tracker ?

thanks

Hi

Firstly try a new battery in your fob,secondly the key pad is for changing the settings on how your alarm works. If you read your handbook it will tell you how to alter the settings and what they do.

You will need the four digit code to alter this - should be writen in the handbook.

Cheers Red.

Default Tried it

I have two fobs both with new batteries and at times neither work , I even suspected the 12v battery and had that checked , after reading some other threads it seems that inteference from radio masts may be the issue , anyone else had this ?

Had it happen on my 00MY Classic. At the time I couldn't remember the keypad code. Local dealer reset it free
