Default cobra alarm dealers

my cobra alarm has stopped working, think the battery dead in the fob.
went to local alarm place who are not very good anyway but they advised me not to open the fob to change the battery unless i knew the code.(which i dont).
anybody help with this or know a cobra dealer around the berks/bucks area?

if it's anything like my cobra alarm (which it sounds like it) when it stopped working it wouldnt unlock/lock the car but the fob light was still flashing - what i did to fix it was...

1) Go stand next to your car
2) Press and hold down both fob buttons together, the red light will flash for about 10 seconds and then go Solid red
3) when it's solid red, press the Unlock or Lock button and it should now be re-linked to alarm

saved me an expensive fix.

You have about 30 seconds to put a new batterey in before it forgets the coding,
