Hi, my fabia vrs 06 plate has recently started having a few problems. The alarm keeps going off for no apparent reason even when the car is not locked. Also the wipers dont work on intermittent. Could anyone shed any light on these matters, cheers joe.

Hello & welcome Joe

The wiper problem could be a fuse or a relay blown, might be worth checking out.

Not sure about the alarm, not had it do it on my car? Post your question in the Fabia forum and you are likely to get a better answer

Hi Joe, the wipers not working on intermittent is the computer's way of telling you there is something wrong with your alarm. I have been having issues with my alarm too. If your alarm is going off and you unlock it, it will lock itself after 30 seconds and can go off again so if you want to leave it unlocked to stop the alarm you have to open the door and close it. Fuse 60 is apparently one to pull out to stop it persisting if you want to give your neighbours some sleep. Or just disconnect the battery which is under 2 covers and you need a 10mm spanner to remove the +ve terminal.

When you couple up your battery afterwards, you'll find your electric windows don't go down with one touch. Wind them all the way down, all the way up and then once they're closed push the button to go up once more. After this, they will work with one touch.

I'm still trying to find where the hell the alarm sounder is located on mine! Aggggghhhh!
