I have the same bloody problem on MY00 (also owned from new). MF keypad doesn't seem to work after I enabled the superlock and cocked up the PIN entry. The PIN now does bugger all. Could you let me know if I can solve this without heading for a dealer? Email is guy@rasonbaker.fsnet.co.uk.

I have some info on the M30 which details how to programme the unit, this gives the programmers PIN No.
But it doesn't appear to say much about the default PIN. Have you not got the user manual ?

Let me know if i can help.

SuperLocked mine after only two weeks of ownership. PIN would not work so had to trailer the car to local car alarm shop to have it re-set. Cost 60 quid.

Hope you get it solved.

 

Did this myself, super locked it before going on holiday. Upon my return tried to unlock it and in the dark must have cocked up the PIN entry. You only get a couple of goes then you have to wait an hour before trying again. Worked fine in the morning.

I ended up having to sleep on my mates floor, where I'd left the car, instead of heading home to my bed Could have got pissed on the flight after all

I'll be a bit more careful if I ever superlock it again.

 

I posted this on another thread, hope it helps:


I know the answer! Had this problem originally with a Golf GTI & Sigma M30. I spoke direct with TOAD alarms, managing director, no less! He said that the alarms made prior to '99 were set at 433mhz and were never a problem. Then the government allowed telephone companies/police/fire etc to use 420-430mhz bandwidths. So when you are near a mast/hospital or police station you get a bleed over as their signal is much stronger! I assume the guys with MY00/01 cars had older alarm units fitted.

One cheap way to overcome it is use the Top Gear trick and put the fob to your head, creating an amplified signal (no you don't have to open your mouth as some people have suggested!) It often works.

I managed to persuade the MD to send me a new unit, foc and paid a local dealer to fit it for £40 inc. So either hassle TOAD direct or buy a new unit is the only way round it, if the head trick doesn't work.

PS. I have the codes for your alarms, if you want to programme any of the features, like locking the doors on start up or turning beeps on/off. You can also programme new fobs yourself and most importantly, change the PIN number. Remember, the person before you still has your PIN number probably and can over-ride your alarm, if they are that way inclined. Mail me if you'd like the codes, put Sigma as the subject though, I delete all spam looking mails! bullkeith@aol.com

 

Thanks for sending some info. Looks like the keypad needs resetting. Anyone know how to do this (without resort to a dealer)?

 

Not sure if this helps you

I had mine looked at under warranty, there is some extra shielding that can be fitted to prevent the radio mast problem. You don't half look an idiot in a fast car when you can't start it!
