Hi Vikta,

The 446RLi will auto immobilise the engine after 45 seconds of disarming or switching the ignition off.

Have you tried pressing the disarm button to turn off the immobiliser?

i have a 446Rli that has gone completely rogue. Goes off without intrusion, and ran out the car battery. I have replaced the car battery but the engine is not running anymore. I think the car has been immobilized. help…

Hi Rick, The alarm may go off as the battery drops off. Most electrics can do strange stuff with the wrong voltage!

Once the battery is flat the alarm will not operate, but when the battery is re-charged or replaced then the alarm will be in the same state as it was before it lost its power. So pressing the disarm button on the remote would work in this situation.

Got a pre-emptive question for you about the Autowatch 446RLi; how does it behave in flat battery situations (the car’s main battery that is)? If the battery gets so flat the alarm has shut down, presumably it can’t tell the siren to go off when you unlock the door with the key and open it. Since the siren has its own battery I don’t want there to be a situation where it decides to go off but the alarm has no power to tell it to shut up.

Then what happens if you replace the battery? Does it reset in the disarmed state or does it start squawking because it’s armed and the bonnet is open? At this point it could probably be disarmed by remote again.
