Title: Estate Alarm
Post by: pedroMV6 on 25 April 2010, 17:57:56

If I just cut the wires to the rear side windows, will the alarm activate?
If it does,then what do I need to do?
Or, can I simply connect a wire to both (to keep the circuit) and then remove the pads from the windows?

Stick a meter on them to see if they are n/o or n/c.  I suspect normally closed, as its a glass break sensor.

That's why I thought that adding a wire in first, before disconnecting them from the glass.

Just went for it - cut one pair off then discovered they simply pull off! ::)

Oh well, alarm didn't go off.
