I think that only the executives have the alarm - the sensors are in the pillars by the windscreen, and the rest of the models have deadlocks only..??

The BSI reset procedure thats in the topic above is a good guide - however I just make sure that the car is unlocked with the bonnet popped open and the keys out of the ignition for at least 5 mins before disconnecting the battery. this give all the ECUs and the BSI time to 'wind-down' before its disconnected.

The same for reconnecting - wait 5 mins before opening a door after you have connected the battery.
