   help needed.
   
   
   just replaced the battery on my saxo and now i cant get the alarm to turn off. i have the fob for it but the button s broke on it so is there any other way to turn the alarm off without the fob or do i need a new one from citroen? should have said its the standard alarm

   how broke is the button on the fob? mines really broke as in the rubber button has come off, and the micro switch you can see inside has also come off.
   if you can see the micro switch inside then great you can press that using something thin.
   if not and its like mine where the micro switch has come off then you can see 2 lil silver bits in there. what i do is use my door key and wiggle it between them 2 bits and it works for me. if not then i dunno pal best off replacing the alarm fob

   yeah mine is as broke as yours lol. the batteries must be dead in my fob also so must get them changed. would i need to reset the fob and if so how do i do it? the alarm was never on from i got the car also i just locked and unlocked the car with the key.

   na just get another micro switch and solder it in place of the old one and get a new fob, put all the electrics from inside your old fob into the new one. iv got a new fob but need the micro switch
