Meta Alarm problem

My Dad got his Honda CB1300 yesterday and has the same alarm as me a Meta 537t v2 or something like that, however his bike has completely immobilised my bike altogether when he unarmed his bike, I have friends who have the same alarm and no problems, are we linked on the same frequency or something? Majorly confused.

Sounds like your alarm has a power supply fault.

Really? I forgot to add that this morning my alarm disarmed and then my Dad's alarm immobilised this morning meaning only miy bike would start, so we can;t both have duff alarms?

Also when my Dad pushed his bike to the front of the house, both of our alarms worked fine, so it probably can't be alarm fault as both have been working perfectly recently.

Sorry I didn't mention this before, I was in a rush. Embarassed

Sounds like your dads fob threw out a code that matched his and your bike.

Not sure if you can do it with a Meta but there should be someway to recode the key to the alarm. Try that. As its a rolling code it should sort the problem.

You will need the red code card that came with your alarm to do it.

Have to admit I dislike Meta alarms. In my experience and the experience of fitters I've spoken to they can have some real weird problems such as completely locking up and not reacting to the fob which sounds remarkably like what you have.
