1999 vauxhall astra, key fob not working so alarm goes off each time you open the car, attempted to change battery in the fob and reprogram the fob by inserting it in to the ignition and holding down both button for 30 seconds, friends recommendation, didn't make any difference, at the point now where I would rather just disconnect the alarm system as I'm confident no one would be that bothered about stealing the car but I have no idea how to disconnect. Any solutions to th eproblem or how to disconnect the alarm syatem would be greatly appreciated.
I am not 100% certain but resyncing the key fob won't necessarily affect the alarm which is likely to be integrated with the immobiliser - I think all it does is make the central locking work.
In addition to the key plip for the central locking, the key also contains a transponder chip that I believe is like a grain of rice and can be easily lost when taking the key apart to change the battery.
The transponder chip requires no power from the battery and is not connected to it in any way. It is programmed to the code of the immobiliser with dedicated equipment and is recognised when the key is inserted into the ignition.
Even if you manage to disconnect the alarm the embedded immobiliser is still likely to prevent the engine starting.

The problem is in the loom in the steering wheel, it requires removal of the airbag and a new wheel loom to be fitted. The loom costs about £15.00 I think.

Pull each fuser out if the fuse box lid doesn't show a cig on the fuse lid and see if it's blown. Replace the blown fuse. If all the fuses look good trace the lighter back to the inline fuser and replace.
