My alarm kept going off on my 2002 asz MK4 golf PD130. I checked the boot lid for leaks and I had no wet patches, nor did any warning lights about 'luggage compartment' open come on (and havent since). When I lock the car, all the lights go off, and I havent had any problems with any of the locks / lights at all. I thought it might be a microswitch somewhere first, so I bought a cable with vagcom 409-1 shareware to tell me where the fault lies.
I have recently learnt the difference between this version and the 805 shareware, but i now have the software, and the problem still! (I didnt think that I was buying a 'rip-off' version, and i dont think that i have, but I really wont want to upset a software developer who has spent many days and nights neglecting his family in favor of binary code...)
So, as it stands...
ive looked through the menus and havent found a single fault code. When I access the (25) IMMOBILSER - option, I find the controller, but get no faults. When I access (35) CENTRAL LOCKING - I get no controller. The Central Convience box seems to be in working order also.
I was under the impression that I could find the cause of my alarm going off via the Vagcom, where do i look? can it be done?
