ok thanks, spoke to car radio shop and they said to try connecting battery, alarm will go off, close all the doors and hold down both buttons on remote to 're-code' remote to alarm.
Going to nip home in my lunch hour and give it a try.

Re: Replacing battery: Alarm goes off when connected and remote won't turn it off
I don't think its that as I replaced the battery in the remote in December and it seemed to be working fine.
I assume the problem is caused by the fact that I disconnected the old battery when the alarm was sounding. Any idea how I could reset it?

Replacing battery: Alarm goes off when connected and remote won't turn it off
My 1997 mr2 mk2 has been sitting on the drive for a while, wouldn't start and a few minutes after trying to start it the alarm went off to signify the battery was almost flat (as it did a while ago when I left the lights on). I knew the battery was very old so bought a new one, connected the leads i...

[Mk2] [NA] problem replacing rev3 sidelights with rev 4/5 clear sidelights
A few months ago I replaced the standard orange sidelights on my MR2 rev3 for some clear Toyota ones that I bought on the forum and assume are from a rev 4 or 5. When I came to fit them I found that the connector was different so I cut the connector off my old orange lights and wired it to the new c...

Re: weight? turbo fibreglass engine cover vs na steel engine cover
since the rain tray underneath is metal on the turbo engine cover I wasn't sure if it would really be much lighter?

weight? turbo fibreglass engine cover vs na steel engine cover
I was wondering if anyone knew the weight of a standard MR2 Turbo fibreglass engine cover in comparison to a NA steel engine cover, is it much lighter?

Re: Yellow stuff pads with standard or grooved discs road/track???
ok, I've spent the last few weeks trying to decide on a disc/pad combo and have received nothing but conflicting opinion.. I guess brake choice is largely down to personal preference.
I know CRN discs are cheap but are they as good quality and long lasting as EBC or standard discs?

My front and rear discs and pads need replacing and since Ive got trackdays planned and booked for the summer and enjoy fast road driving I was going to get EBC yellow stuff pads all round.
