Every time I do an install I like to meet the owner and explain how the system works. If this is not possible (Car yards for example) then I leave a business card and user manual so that the owner can contact me.

I would suggest talking to your GM dealer to get the installer details.

The FC number is the same as the 446RLi Prmium, but there are other Autowatch alarms that use that remote that are not available in NZ. (You did not state your location) I have no way of guessing which one it could be.

I found the 45 seconds thing is nothing to worry about. Just like you mentioned on the other page, all i had to do (when the immobiliser self-arms) was to switch to ignition and press the peanut button once. Then start the engine.

Recommended alarm!

I’m pleased I could be of assistance.
Tell Kishor he owes me a beer next time we catch up

I own a tidy Toyota Corsa 97 model so I’m definately opting for a more budget but a very good alarm.

I will speak to Kishor..

I think you’ve misinterpreted the 45 second thing. The Immobiliser will kick in as soon as you arm the alarm with the remote so you don’t need to wait around for it to arm. If you don’t arm the alarm then the immobiliser will auto arm after 45 seconds.

The transponder is simply to disarm the immobiliser without the need to press any buttons. It does not offer any added security, it’s simply a convenience feature.

It is a set up that I use myself. I have a Cobra AK4147 and Autowatch 573PPi, but this is not really an option if you are on a budget! Details here: http://vehiclesecurity.co.nz/blog/obsessive-installation

So in response to your question: No it is not possible to have a transponder remote with an Autowatch 446RiSG.

I’m having to decide between the 446RiSG and the Dynatron 7600 mainly because of that 45 sec immobilisation issue. I like the 446RiSG as it has the attack proof security housing but I also don’t want to have to wait every single time I turn the car off as this would not be very good for a fast paced pizza delivery situation!!!

Is there no way to have the 446 RiSG to have some kind of remote transponder???

He’s the importer and is based in Auckland plus is a very capable installer.

Is there an installer that you could recommend me in Auckland? Please email me if you cannot post this reply on your site.

Thanks

Thanks for the feedback.

The Hazard lights flash once then come on constant for 15 seconds.

However that does depend on how it is wired up, there is a scenario on some vehicles where they would flash for 15 seconds. This would only be on some modern cars where wiring up each individual light is a mission and I would normally advise about this in advance of the install.
