If you have a tracking system be careful removing fuses as it may be wired into one of the circuits you disable.

Depends on the model and the alarm fitted!

More recent cars allow you to enable "super-lock", which requires a PIN number to be keyed in before the car will start.

If you have a bespoke alarm, best not say what it is on this BBS in case crims are listening (and will know that you will be away).
