Attempting to retrofit DWA alarm unit

[EPG_19]

Bit of an update on my last post.
Today I thought I'd try an experiment. I removed all the seat plastic to access the new alarm unit. I disconnected the wire connector and plugged it to my old unit
Guess what? It worked perfectly and no error codes were shown.
I really hope my dealer is not spinning me a yarn but I do find it quite strange regarding the claim that they couldn't code it because it was already registered to my previous bike.
As I said previously its not exactly cutting edge technology.
I do however understand that they would have to get the bike to recognise the alarm and provide the functionality through the TFT.

The only coding is telling the bike there's a unit fitted, no matching alarms to the bike etc

GS911 can ‘activate ‘ the alarm or activate nav prep etc . No special codes , although they describe functions as coding

Although often leaves it without the arming tones

Coding means selecting amongst available options pre-programmed in a controller. Programming involves putting new instructions into a controller.
