Car Alarms: 98 mitsubishi diamante factory alarm, mitsubishi diamante, valet mode

Question
hi, my question is my alarm in my 98 mitsubishi diamante went off and i was able to unhook the batt and get it to stop. after reading the manual i fig out how to use the door lock to stop the lights.  i hooked up the batt to start it but found it was dead, (it was an old batt) so i replaced it with a new one and now it will not start or even try to start.  i checked all the fuses and they are all good.  i could not find a rest switch anywhere.  i have called the dealer and they do not know it.  please if you can tell me what to do.

thank you jason

Answer
Hmmm, might need to be evaluated by a tech to
trouble shoot the issue. Until then, to try to disarm it,
look under the dash area for a button or,
a toggle switch. When you locate it, turn on the
ignition key, press and hold in the button (little
spring loaded micro button, red or black possibly)
until the alarm chirps 1 time. This should over ride
the system, and only the keyless entry part,
if installed, would still be operating.

The LED (light emiting diode) light in the dash
should also go on solid.=VALET/OVERIDE
( if this is a remote starter, the antenna on the
front window glass may also have the over ride
button inset into it.)

This stops the alarm except for the keyless
entry if installed. Once in Valet mode,
it will allow the car to start and operate
like there was no alarm at all.

The next step is if wanting to remove it,
you contact a local technician to
locate it, and affect neccesary service
for you.

That should solve the troubles.

Let me know what you discover.
