RobSheffield Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Removed my battery 6 months ago to work on the car, when i eventually get round to refit, will it have forgotten my blackjax code, remote codes etc? If so, can i disable blackjax to get it to the dealer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 I doubt it will have, I left mine for about 2 months with no battery connected. Only thing it had done was run the internal battery down... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted February 26, 2007 Author Share Posted February 26, 2007 Sorry John, not yet put power back on, i just wondered how long the internal battery lasted to remember codes etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Harwood Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Rob, the internal battery is only in the siren, and it only gets re-charged whilst the engine is running. The alarm itself is very unlikely to lose it's memorys. It can happen but it's very, very, very rare. If the battery went flat whilst it was armed, or you disconnected it whilst it was off, but immobilised, you may find it will go off after a few seconds of powering it back up. If it does, don't immediatly try to disarm it, leave it sounding for about 5 seconds, then disarm. If it was disconnected in valet mode, it will only chirp or re-connection.
