| Help....can anyone tell me where the battery for the remote is supposed to be? I managed to open it up to see what batteries I need for it, and I couldn't see any in there. Very weird contraption. It is very sometimeish when it comes to activating or deactivating the alarm. Sometimes I have to press it a lot of times before I get a response. Also, the range at which I can use it is rubbish, I have to stand with the stupid thing right up against the bike. Is it just mine? or is this just how they are? I hate it  | |

| No its not meant to be like that. It does sound like it a battery life problem to be honest but i havent had to replace my battery yet in my remote so i dont really know. But its meant to have a decent range on it and work straight away because myn does anyway. | |

| Thanks for the link and info, but I know it's probably a battery issue, but I cannot see where the battery is when I remove the cover. There is nothing there that I can see looks like the battery. Is it just a matter of taking of the plastic cover, and it should be looking me the face? or is the battery hidden somewhere else in there, I just can't see the dam thing | |

| just a thought but did you look on both sides of the circuit board as they sometimes put the battery on the other side | |

| the battery should be behind the green circuit board in the black box thing. If the battery is not removable from the black box then you need to get a new one from a datatool dealer. Order No.02012064 (battery transponder) gimme a shout if you need one  | |

| Found the little beggers!!! I didn't realise I could remove the circuit board, the batteries are located at the bottom of it. Thanks guys  These remotes are so poorly designed, even getting the plastic cover off is a task in itself.....horrible things | |

| Yeh i had the exact same problem it annoyed me so much i was considering upgrading to system 4!!
If you want to improve the remote range, hold it against your head or by your mouth!! Works like a charm!! | |
