i had this alarm with the car and the fob just ran out of batteries so i got new ones. problem im having now is the fob isn't doing anything to the car so the immobiliser is stuck off and i can start the car, anyone know the code or anything to reprogram the fob or whatever needs doing to it to make it work again so i can get home, as im stuck on a road off the dual carriage way leading to the m4

If the person that sold you the vehicle was good it would be on a card with your service history ect, same kinda place where your radio code would be.
If you don't have the valet code then its a tow home job as I think only Clifford can sort that by replacing the alarm brain or resetting it on special kit

By the way.... if all you have done is change the battery in the remote this shouldn't have affected anything....
Did you buy the right size/voltage battery and is it in the right way?

yeah everything is alright apart from the sync because fobs lighting up alright just didnt realise you only have about 20 seconds to change the battery before it needs re-syncronising

yeah, found a manual on the internet and did what you would normally have to do to sync the fob back to the alarm system and it worked.
pressed the 2nd button, held the unlock button for 30 secs then lock, unlock, lock, unlock then the indicators flash n jobs a gooden
