Alarm Question

in BMW 3 Series Forum

Featured Replies

Does anyone have one of these Hella 5aa 003 525-00 Alarms fitted to their car or know anything about how they work?

I have looked on Wiki and checked a couple of manuals but I cannot find any information on them or what they do?

If anyone has one and any advice on how to check it I would be most grateful

    Morning Paul

    Wow that stirs the old grey matter

    I take it your familiar with www.realoem.com check the Classic section or BMW have a Classic section try their Customer services (I am told they can be slow)

    If I recall alarms were not a standard fitting back then so you may find Baur fitted it when they retrimmed the car

    Maybe a question to Baur in Stuttgart I am sure they will have an Archive

    Good Luck

    I agree with Dave, back in the day most alarms were retrofit and Hella being an independent company supplying electrical relays and associated switches to fit to Baur and other styling houses of the era.
    I would be tempted to track the wires individually to see where they go to - I would imagine one or two would go to the starter motor and ignition switch / coil, etc

    Let us know how you get on with it all
