Just popped to the shop in my 97 110 defender, started this morning as it always does without an issue. Jumped back in and nothing, almost looks like there is no power to anything, but the red led on the dash is flashing. Am busy checking fuses but any guidance would be a huge help!

I'm now getting a clicking from under the dash, and the odd bleep from under the bonnet!

che have you tried locking it setting alarm waiting for a few minutes and unlocking again. Sometime alarms just throw a hissy fit.

Pressing the alarm button just starts it clicking or stops it, but doesn't activate the alarm

Wouldn't be very good immobiliser if it was easy to bypass. Is it after market alarm or an LR one, have you got details of who fitted it.
