    Hi All,
    Can anyone help.

    I have recently bought p reg 2L gls vectra with factory fitted alarm.

    Everything seems to work ok exect acording to the handbook the
    indicators should flash when i operate the keyfob on the central
    locking.

    Any one have any ideas, is it some kind of relay or would i have to
    renew something else..please help...scanman

  2. The alarm operates the normal indicator relays (the Vectra has one relay for
    left and one for right). If they are not flashing when the alarm is
    armed/disarmed or triggered, then it is likely that the control unit is not
    set-up correctly. A Vauxhall dealer can reset the country configuration
    with their TECH2 computer - if it is set to UK, then the indicators will
    flash. If it is set to Germany, then the indicators do not flash. A quick
    check with TECH2 will ascertain the country code and reset it if necessary,
    and also actuate the relays manually to test the circuit. This shouldn't
    cost more than £25 at a Vx dealer.
