Car Alarms: 2000 Nissan Altima security system problem, nissan altima, valet mode


Question
My 2000 Nissan Altima's hazard lights started flasing intermittenly and the doors UNlock while this is going on. The flashers start blinking most always after starting the car or turning it off. Other times is when I hit a bump in road, turn a corner, or just driving down the road, and also while sitting (not running) overnight. Overnight happens every night, but the rest don't happen EVERY time, there's just no rhyme or reason to it. What can I do about this, or is there a way to disconnect the security system which will still let me lock the doors when I want them locked?  I'm assuming this a factory installed security system (I got the car used), and I haven't put any security system on it.  Thanks for any help you can give me!!!  

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.
