I had a similar problem with mine a few weeks ago and ended up getting a new alarm fitted but kept the original Porsche immobilser as there was nothing wrong with it. Parts for the original Laserline? alarm are now obsolete so you find that replacing it is actually easier and cheaper. These things do wear out eventually and actually the modern alarms are so much better. Another advantage of upgrading is that the in-car people will link the alarm to your central locking so when you press the key fob the doors lock/unlock.
 
I cannot switch my car alarm off on my 1988 3.2 Carrera. I bought a new battery for the fob following the alarm going off 20 seconds after setting it, however the fob will not now stop the alarm.
I disconnected the car battery but as soon as I reconnect the siren starts again. Probably need to locate the siren and disconnect.
I am trying to find out what make it is but all I can see is a small letter S on the fob which is square in shape, black and has a central on off button and appears to be an original item I think!!
Any info/help much appreciated. John
 
Thanks David - I am sure you are right about replacing the alarm. My problem now is as soon as I reconnect the battery the alarm resets itself and as well as the siren going off I am unable to start the car. Somehow I need to disconect it without the alarm going into "tamper" mode!
