I had the usual dead battery problem with my Meta alarm (M357T-V2) so went to remove it by following the advice on the internet and bridging wires. However I cocked it up because I didn't realise there were 2 different wire bridging solutions for the M357T and the M357T-V2.
I then decided to remove the wiring from the loom completely so I cut off the alarm. When I opened up the loom I expected to see colour-coded wiring and to be able to identify which wires to join together (as this is the equivalent of the wire-bridging solutions). That would be too easy though! It turns out the alarm wires are all black and the wires in the loom are all black with a small green mark :eek so you can't easily identify which wire is which. I thought I had just cost myself €500 in dealer charges.
After some head-scratching I worked it all out through trial and error and the bike is running fine without the alarm now.
I made a short video that might help people if they have the same problem I had or if you want to remove more of the alarm than just the alarm box itself.
Here is the link:-
