Hi,

I have had a local car electrician try to rectify the problem with no success. He suggested taking it to the main Seat dealer but apparently to diagnose would be very costly.
Can the alarm be disconnected? I think that could be the only option I could afford.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Yours sincerely,
John

Hello,

There is a fuse located in the fuse box under the dash that controls the alarm.
Removing the fuse should turn off the alarm.
It should be number 44, a 5A fuse.

I have attached a picture for your reference.

Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.

Since Seat is not sold in the USA, I don't have specific technical information. However, it should be number 44. You can pull the fuse and see if that takes care of the alarm. Be sure that the vehicle is off before pulling the fuse.
