Got williams 3 with toad alarm.
i have no power to any lights or ignition the car is dead! I have been using an electrical tester to see if i have power to various places in the car. I dont have power to ignition, fuse box on passenger side under bonnet nor in fuse box under glove box. I think something has blown but would ave thought that it would have been fuse. Is their a main fuse somewhere on ignition or under bonnet? Battery is showing 12volts. Car is earthing good. I cant see the alarm having aything to do with it?
Ideas anyone?!

I had a similar problem with my valver.

I couldnt unlock it with the key fob, and the immobiliser can only be de-armed using the fob with mine.

Why didnt they put the immobiliser in the glove box on a key like they did with my 93 RSI!

So I took it to renault and they re-coded the key for me.

It only cost me £80 which is the cheapest trip Ive had to renault!
