Review of Manufacturer Prices

Conclusion

The standard passive protection system on the Lada Granta Liftback is not enough. It is necessary to additionally install an active alarm.

Considering the wide range of products on the market, it is difficult for an inexperienced owner to make the right choice and select the correct security module model.

When purchasing, consider the cost of the product, and then its technical characteristics.

The article provides reviews of the most popular anti-theft models. The owner has the final say.

To disperse the punks, for those who need a beeper, a simple alarm will do. No feedback, with a minimal set of functions. Engine blocking and sound signal. Alligator A-LIGHT or Leopard LR433 are suitable. You can click on widgets and look at the characteristics on websites.

It's simple. Buy it, install it yourself. The main thing is that after self-installation, the neighbors sleep peacefully, otherwise they themselves will steal your car))) If not yourself, then get ready to look for service and money. And this is about three to four thousand rubles. I don’t see any point in spending money on such beepers, especially since most cars have a standard beeper.

More serious alarms already inspire some confidence. After trying various manufacturers, I chose StarLine. The choice is wide, depending on everyone's needs. For those for whom it is important not to lose touch with the car, the StarLine A63 ECO option is good. Optionally, you can make autostart, GPS, GSM. The A63 has broader functions, it already has auto start and a security mode when the engines are running. I really liked the StarLine E63 alarm system, it can still be found, but it is no longer in production. The broken LCD display on the key fob did not interfere with the proper operation of the system. An easy and intuitive settings menu where you can adjust the sensitivity of the sensors, autostart time and even view the temperature inside the car. It’s especially good in the morning, you know how to dress. However, go through the widget to the stores, select the necessary parameters. I was pleasantly surprised by the possibility of installing the purchased alarm system either from the seller or from the seller’s partners. Thus, one of the stores offers installation of an alarm with auto start for only 2,500 from a partner.

I made my choice. What you like is up to you to decide. I recommend, but I don't force. A nice bonus from the manufacturer is a wide network of authorized installation centers and 24-hour technical support in case of unforeseen situations. Okay, I'm probably boring you by now. Think, decide, call me an advertiser. All the best and good luck!

Setting up the key fob

When using the A39 system with a CAN module, it is possible to enable the Slave mode, which allows you to control the system from a standard key fob. An additional remote control can be used as an identification tag. If, when disarming with an additional remote control, alarm signals turn on (after 30 seconds), then the device must be switched to tag mode.

Keychain tag A39 with designation of elements

To switch the key fob into tag mode you must:

1. Press and hold button 01. The indicator on the key fob allows you to determine the operating mode. If it lights up in red, then the normal operation of the alarm is activated, if it lights up in blue, the Slave mode is activated.
2. Switching to Slave is performed by briefly pressing button 03 (key 01 is held down). The switching will be confirmed by the indicator color changing to blue.
3. To return to normal mode, briefly press key 02, which will be confirmed by the red glow of the diode.
4. After selecting the mode, you can release the 01 key.

Step-by-step installation of an alarm system on a Lada Granta with your own hands

The alarm is very useful and multifunctional. With its help, you can protect your car from thieves or accidental collisions in the parking lot. More complex security systems are capable of using a key fob to open the trunk from a distance, start the engine, or perform a host of other interesting functions.

Lada Granta models such as Norma and Standard do not have an anti-theft system in their factory equipment. The factory simply does not install them, since the designers considered this part superfluous, if you do not take the immobilizer into account.

That is why this article was created, since the relevance of the issue of installing an alarm system on the Lada Granta is soaring at exorbitant heights. Despite the fact that there is a huge range of security systems for cars on the market, they have almost identical installation schemes, with only minor differences.

How to activate immo?

Activating the immobilizer is a procedure that many of our compatriots encounter. An activated immobilizer will be able to fully perform the functions assigned to it.

How to properly activate a node:

1. First you need to close all the doors, then turn on the ignition, but to do this, use a red training key. Wait at least six seconds; if the immo is not activated, the corresponding indicator should appear on the device.
2. Remove the learning key.
3. Then, within five seconds you need to turn on the ignition with your working key. Having done this, you can hear the immo making beeps, there should be five of them in total. If there is no sound, there may be several reasons - either you did not meet the time limits, or the working key is configured to work with another device, or the node is not working.
4. Next, turn off the ignition and remove the key.
5. Then you need to quickly turn on the training key again while the car is blinking (you have no more than six seconds). Five beeps should sound again - 3 and 2.
6. Now turn off the ignition, but do not remove the key. Another beep should sound. When this happens, within 6 seconds, turn on the ignition for 3 seconds, no more, then turn it off, and the key can be left in the lock.
7. After these steps, three more signals should sound, but the key does not need to be removed. Wait at least ten seconds before removing the key. If for some reason the system was not activated, the procedure must be repeated.

Connection points

As soon as the thought of purchasing an alarm has occurred to you, you must first decide on your choice. What exactly do you want from a security system? You only need protection or some other additional functions that a device of this kind can provide.

It’s worth saying right away that in most cases there is no point in buying the most sophisticated newest model. A strong middle player will be more useful for Granta. Typically, brands of such systems quickly become popular or fly off the shelves like melted popsicles. An alarm system that has proven itself to be excellent will be in demand simply because it has been tested by many, and nowadays information reaches consumers much faster than even just five years ago.

The configuration of the security system completely depends on its model, so the presence or absence of any elements does not yet indicate a defect, etc.

Next, we will look at one of the proven autostart systems - Starline. It is chosen by car owners who prefer to service their iron horse themselves, rather than throw it into the hands of service station masters on every occasion. Moreover, this system is perfect not only for Grants standard, but also for liftback and luxury.

Initially, during assembly, the factory equipped the Grant with a limit switch only for the driver's door, so you will need to additionally purchase new ones for the remaining three doors, as well as connection blocks. In addition, you will need about 10 m of wire and an alarm bell, which usually comes with the security system, but not always.

Step by step installation

If this is your first time performing such manipulations and you have no idea how, what and where, follow exactly the recommendations in the step-by-step instructions, and everything will work out for you:

1. First of all, you need to install an alarm bell (siren) under the hood.
2. Then the limit switch is installed on the hood cover. There is even a special place for it on the engine shield. But only a limit switch according to the European standard will do, and in order to install a domestic analogue there, you will have to work hard.
3. To the left of the engine you will find a rubber plug through which you need to lay the wire from the siren and the previously installed limit switch into the cabin.
4. Next comes work with the main unit of the security system. It is best to install it behind car instruments. Select the appropriate bracket and install the device.
5. Attach the service button to the bottom strip of the fuse box.
6. Install a shock sensor nearby.
7. To install the wiring to the signal transmitter, you will need to remove the lamp shade and sun visors. Place the transmitter above the rearview mirror.
8. The LED indicator is traditionally attached to the left pillar.
9. After carefully studying the connection diagram, you can begin connecting the main unit of the alarm system to the ignition switch.
10. The most difficult stage is the automatic opening of the door. And all because central locking is installed and the driver's door can only be opened with a key. But still there is an opening electric drive, but it is not connected. This means that there are no necessary wires in the connectors. Therefore, you need to remove the 9-pin and look for suitable microcontacts, because the standard ones will not fit - they will not be able to provide the necessary grip. Then simply assemble the connector and then connect the wires. This procedure must be repeated on all doors.
11. Route the wires into the interior through a corrugated tube and install all the door switches. The latter must be connected in parallel.

Test the installed security system. If it works, then you did everything correctly. It is not so easy to install it yourself, but if you want to do it, you will succeed.

Immobilizer and its location

An immobilizer is a standard car alarm system. Its purpose is to block the engine starting system if an attempt to start it is unauthorized.

The device blocks the main components that prevent the engine from starting.

Such a Lada alarm system will not be able to signal with a siren about illegal entry into the car, but it will block the engine, so the maximum that a potential thief can do is to “surround” the car’s interior (the author of the video is Ivan Sergeev).

Of course, in this case, the car owner may lose personal belongings, but you don’t have to worry about the safety of the vehicle.

The main immo block is located in a hard-to-reach place for obvious reasons, so that a hijacker cannot disable it. To get to the unit in your car, you need to partially disassemble the center console.

The unit itself is located behind the stove, and the immo control sensor is located in the ignition switch.

Alarm installation

You will need: alarm, siren, medium diameter wire (10 meters), tool.

Installing an alarm system begins with attaching a siren (bell), which we place in any convenient place in the engine compartment. Then we fix the hood limit switch; the Lada Granta has a special Euro bracket for it.

We lay the wires from the siren and limit switch from the engine compartment into the passenger compartment through the standard hole on the left side of the engine shield (if viewed in the direction of travel).

It is most convenient to place the alarm unit under the instrument panel (removal process), securing it with a suitable bracket. The shock sensor can be mounted on a strip under the mounting block. The “Valet” button (service button for setting up the alarm) is installed individually in each case; it should be well hidden, but at the same time easily accessible. The alarm signal transmitter is most often mounted in the upper part of the windshield.

The LED alarm indicator is most conveniently placed in the left windshield pillar. There is only a driver's door switch; the rest will have to be installed and connected to the driver's switch, i.e. to red/green in the threshold.

Depending on the configuration of the Lada Grant, to automatically open/close the doors, it may be necessary to install an electric drive (activator) of the central locking system in the driver's door (removing the door trim). To quickly route wires from the door to the passenger compartment, you can drill a hole for them in the round connector. Connection diagram:

Stages

Alarm connection points

Installation of the anti-theft system is carried out in the following order:

1. First install the siren in the engine compartment; when installing, keep in mind that it should not be exposed to moisture or high temperatures.
2. Attach the hood warning switch.
3. It is necessary to install a power unit temperature controller on the motor itself.
4. To the left of the cylinder block you can see a plug - through it you need to pull all the cables from the siren, the controller and the installed open hood limit switch. When all the wires are in the cabin, it is necessary to diagnose the plug and the reliability of the wires.
5. After completing these steps, you need to install the anti-theft system control unit; it is best to place it behind the control panel. When installing, keep in mind that the unit must be securely fastened, otherwise vibrations will affect it, and this will not lead to anything good.
6. Now open the fuse box - you need to mount the Valet service button on its bottom bar. You can also install a shock sensor here, in accordance with the signal of which the siren will turn on.
7. Next, we move on to installing the transmitter; it can be placed near the rearview mirror or opposite the driver’s seat. As a rule, this adapter is fixed with tape. If the kit comes with a separate light indicator, it can be installed in the rack housing. The light bulb is fixed with glue.
8. The next step is to connect the wire to the door end switch, to this wire you will then connect the wiring from the remaining doors. We move on to the luggage compartment and lay out the wiring, connecting the corresponding cable to the end switch.
9. Now all you have to do is connect all the necessary contacts to the control unit, as well as to the ignition switch. To do this, use the diagram above.

We install an alarm system on a Lada Granta with our own hands: connection points and diagram

Almost every owner of his car has thought about how to equip his iron horse with protection against theft. This also applies to owners of the Lada Granta, because the standard and standard configurations are not equipped from the factory with any anti-theft system other than an immobilizer. And in this article we will tell you how to install an alarm system on a car with your own hands, because in essence, despite the wide variety of different types and companies, the procedure for installing them is quite similar.

Main functions

"Signalka" A39 can provide:

• protection against unauthorized engine starting (main and additional relays);
• car interior protection using limit switches and shock and tilt sensors;
• silent and sound arming;
• work with and without a siren in alarm mode;
• automatic switching on when the deactivation button is pressed by mistake;
• sending messages to a key fob or phone;
• work in immobilizer and anti-theft modes;
• automatic engine start;
• engine operation according to turbo timer;
• control of standard autonomous heaters;
• work with standard alarm system in Slave mode;
• activation by a signal from an adjustable shock sensor;
• work together with GSM Starline M22 or M32 external modules with CAN bus support;
• operation with optional built-in GSM unit;
• use in conjunction with an additional Starline R2 radio relay (up to two pieces);
• work with code relay Starline R3.

The operation of the Starline A39 autostart from the standard Kia Optima key fob is demonstrated in a video from the author Mikhail Novikov.

Alarm connection point options

Once you have decided to start installing the alarm yourself, you need to make a choice. Don't choose the latest model with the latest bells and whistles. It is enough to turn your attention to a strong middle peasant whose brand has long established itself in this market. Consider installation on a popular car alarm model from Starline.

Depending on the model, equipment may vary.

Since the manufacturer equipped the car from the factory with a limit switch only for the driver’s door, you should purchase new elements for the remaining three, as well as connection blocks, from the store.

In addition, you should purchase about 10 meters of wire, as well as an alarm bell (siren) if one is not included in the kit.

Step-by-step installation process

1. First of all, we install the alarm siren under the hood.

It is worth choosing a place for fixing it where there is no possibility of water ingress.

A European-type end cap (additional option) will easily fit into the base location.

After the wires are in the cabin, check the plug for secure fixation.

Not far from the shock sensor, we place a service button.

In most cases, the transmitter is attached using double-sided tape.

We fix the indicator on the stand body with glue.

From the end switch of the driver's door, we stretch the “positive” wires to the other doors.

Happy New Year everyone! Friends, comrades, the question has arisen. What kind of alarm system should I install? I settled on two options Starline a93 or s96. The obvious differences are the 3rd and 6th generation. Which side shows itself better at work and from what side? Do any threads cause hemorrhoids during operation?

I plan to contact the dealer for installation
