Default sigma alarm problem

2000 uk spec turbo impreza classic, sigma m30 alarm.

i only have 1 working alarm fob, have been meaning to purchase another but never got round to it, i was not given my 4 digit code by previous owner as he never used it as vehicle was constantly in valet mode and he used the key only not the fob, last few days fob been playing up press a good few times to arm/disarm car. today drove to my local tesco, pressed fob, locked car fine, came out, fob light flashing 3 times but not doing anything, my car is stuck at tesco which im not too pleased about, anyway to reprogram fob without the 4 digit alarm code other than going through subaru and waiting ages, i need to get my car back home, have had a quick look on forums regarding the 3 flashes on the fob and they basically say i need to reprogam the fob, which clearly i cant without the 4 digit code. so basically anyway to manually disable immobiliser to get it home, many thanks kev

You will need to get the serial number of the control box

Or tow car as Tescos sometimes have phone masts on site that blanket your signal
