Default Clifford Concept 600 Alarm Tilt Sensor

Hi All,

Have got a problem with my Clifford alarm fitted to my Cosworth and hoping someone can help me.

Every so often the alarm will trigger for no apparent reason. When I disarm the alarm the LED light flashes 4 time which according to the Clifford manual means there is a fault with the tilt/motion sensor.

My question is can this sensor be changed seperatly or do I need to change the complete alarm system?

If this can be changed does anyone know a good alarm company in the Redditch / Solihull area that could change it for me?

yes this sensor can be change separtly just plugs out,but more than likely the sensitivity is to high on it ,which just needs to be turned down a shade ,this can either be done manualy at the sensor by twisting the dial on the sensor or by anyone with the cliffnet wizard on their computer.

Thanks for the responses all, have just ordered a Cliffnet Wizard kit off Amazon for £24.99 so hopefully I can sort it out with this.

Anyone know how easy it is to install the Cliffnet Wizard? I assume you have to plug a lead into the main alarm control box?

yeah you need a lead to plug into its normally via a com port so check youve got one! once its installed and hooked up its a very easy job, cliffnet is a nice piece of software very easy to use!!

I'm pretty sure it has the port as when I had the alarm fitted a few years ago the company that did it tried to sell me the Cliffnet software, due to a lack of fund at the time didn't have it fitted as the bill was already £900

Thanks for all the responses will have a go at the weekend if the kit turns up in time.
