Which Immobiliser Do I Have?

[Bramble111s]

Insured with Adrian Flux, due to Mloc wabritising, but have huge forms to fill in....

What kind of tyres, mods etc (great rate btw)

 

However I need to advise what immobiliser I have.

 

How do I know?

 

Are all 99 Elises not fitted with the same one?

Does it say in any log books or in the car somewhere?

 

I have always thought I had the cobra alarm, is it not part of that?

 

Ladders, which ones in your car?

 

In fact Beefcake, what was in your 111s?

 

THANKS!

Its likely to be a Cobra 6422 as that is what I had fitted to mine.

BTW - You should have a certificate telling you what alarm you have fitted.

Should you? I've always been suspisious of mine because it's not wired into the stack but has a LED in the spare button and mine wasn't a road car from new so wouldn't have needed a factory fit one

Always exceptions to the norm, never seen an Elise alarm like that before, do you have an older model alarm or a non cobra one?

yep. should have a certificate. Cobra 6422 on mine I think. Borrow someone elses if you haven't got one ;-)

[Bramble111s]

Duh, just thought I'd check my log books, and indeed I do have a cert -

 

Cobra 'D' ? 6422

 

is it a D?

 

final dumbass question, is this alarm, also the immobiliser ?

 

thanks guys

It's a standard cobra key fob with the contact bit as well. The only difference is the location of the light. The car had 6k miles on it before it was road registered and I don't know if people normally bother with alarms in track cars

 

Where should the certificate be, is it loose with the logbook or just printed in it somewhere?

Thanks Beefy, I knew I was being a dummy (or at least had a small suspicion...)

I can't find any other changes listed for alarms.

 

Mines an oddity too, ask Scott
