Go on then - where is the fuse?
In response to Tim and any others who are not sure where the fuse is, there are actually 5 of them. 2 x 20A, 2 x 3A and 1 x10A.
Look under the dash on the drivers right side and you will see a fuse panel, it's not this. You will also see a large cable coming from the key ignition switch. Half way down this cable a number of wires will come out of the loom. Follow these upwards and near the top of the fuse panel and in front of it you will find a rectangular block with 5 fuses and a relay attached to it. The fuses are under individual plastic covers, and in my car a 01, it goes relay, 20A. 20A, 3A, 10A,3A. The fuse concerned was the middle 3A.

I once had an issue with my Honda Dealer who told me that the alarm motherboard was at fault and suggested they bypass the alarm at an estimated cost of between £400 and £900 depending on how long
it would take to do the job, and then they did not know if my remote access would work. I was also charged £50 for the diagnosis. They have never seen the car since, and never will during my ownership. And their slogan
is "Bring it Home". Not a chance.
I have a brand new unused second generation Motherboard and matched remote if anyone would like to buy it. £150 inc postage. Or a complete new in the box Hamilton Palmer alarm system including two remotes for £300 inc postage. https://www.flickr.c...eposted-public/
