chrisb1357 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Hi, Can anyone tell me if a Y Reg Fiesta Freestyle 1.2 has an alarm as standard or not. The manual seems to say it does but am not sure how to activate it to see if mine has one or not Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volts Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Do you have a 3 button fob. If so hitting the lock buttontwice causes the hazards to flash twice and alarm should be active Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisb1357 Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 No i just have a standard keys without the fob buttons. I guest it does not have an alarm then but it has central locking using the key Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volts Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 When you turn the key to lock the car if you turn the key twice in the lock direction the car should double lock :) Not sure if you can activate a alarm using a normal key. I seem to recall hazards flashing twice to show alarm is active when you do the second turn . (again this is assuming you have an alarm fitted).

Stoney871 Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Easiest way is to open your bonnet without unlocking the doors. You'll soon know if you have an alarm then. To silence the alarm unlock the doors with a remote key or if you only have a passive key - open doors and put key in ignition and turn to position 2.

chrisb1357 Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 Dont think there is an alarm fitted. Tried the double turn and no indicators flash. Does the Fiesta have a factory fitted immobiliser as on my insurance i put it had no alarm or immobiliser fitted. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Do you have a flashing light on your dash when the cars turned off ? If so you will have an immobiliser. I'm pretty sure you will have a factory fitted PATS system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisb1357 Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 Yes i do have a flashing red LED next to the clock when i lock the car up. Can anyone confirm if its a standard factory fitted PATS system. If so i might be able to reduce my insurance by a few ££ Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisb1357 Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 How can i tell if it has the factory fitted PATS system. DO people put this down on there insurance as having this fitted Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 It is the standard Ford factory fitted PATS2 Immobiliser. Don't know how much of a difference it will make to your premiums but definitely worth telling them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
