The LED will flash.
It will not now be possible to start the
engine, but in this instance the doors will
not lock and the windows etc. will not
close. The door trigger circuits and interior
sensor do not arm.

To start the engine, ensure the ignition is
switched OFF then disarm the immobiliser
by pressing button A on the radio key and
then switch ON the engine within 255

on the contacts of the touch receptacle -
this will disarm and de-immobilise the

armed' the siren will sound until
disarming has taken place. The car can
then be started in the normal way.
