is it possible to disconect the alarm to see if thats the problem. failing that take it back to the place that fitted the alarm and ask them to check it out as the problems started after it was fitted.

my old clifford killed my battery on my old astra, i have a 106 locked up in a garage thats also got a killer clifford on it.. 2 days and its dead..

i really hate clifford alarms, they have always been trouble, cobra or toads have been spot on..
