Check the F5(10A) fuse in the engine compartment fusebox. (I saw that post somewhere online). Also, if you could get hold of an OBD to USB reader and run it using Vol-FCR you should be able to read the codes from the alarm, as it covers the alarm system too. Maybe a member with VOL-FCR leaves near you and might be able to help. If you are passing anywhere near London, you are more than welcome to come over and we can check it with my reader and VOL-FCR. But you leave a bit far.....

Also have a look at this diagram detailing the alarm components for a 1998 V40

Hi guys, The indicators flash once when locking the car,then start flashing with the alarm going off.Things like batterys,car and fob are all good.

Hi,
I have a sealey Vs8650 code reader which I use on the volvo.It's the euro one which does several manufacturers,but only engines,transmissions,airbags,fuel,live data and abs brakes.It does not do alarms.This vol-fcr program,might be able to get it from sealey.

Hi guys,
All's well again,alarm working as it should.The problem was the small connection to the keyless entry module,I clean it with wd40,blew air lightly through it,reconnected it,problem solved. Thanks for all the tips,got there in the end.
