Extending the alarm fob range from 2' to 40' on your Ferrari 360

Yet another common issue on the Ferrari 360 is the alarm and central locking fob range. You tend to have to be very close to the car to be able to disarm the alarm and unlock the doors - like less than a metre away. I came across this post on FerrariChat which talks about the poor position of the alarm unit antenna in the car which is in the fuse box and under a metal plate - shielding it from signals!



So you remove the fuse box behind the passenger seat (UK RHD) then fish the wire out with a hook from behind the metal cover:



Then just fix the antenna along the top of the plastic fuse box with some tape and reinstall the fuse box cover trim.



Result = key fob range > 40' Cost = £0 or $0
