QuestionHI,
I have an 05 nissan sentra which I bought 1 month ago that had an aftermarket car alarm installed. I'm not sure of the make but I know it is pretty sensitive and also has remote start. Anyways, I was trying to show my friend the remote atart feature today and it started the turn on process but just stopped right before trying to turn over. i tried it again but it didnt work and then the whole alarm system doesnt work. The LED light no longer blinks so i figured its not the remote. Now I just use the stock alarm system that was also installed,but I have to use the stock key fob, which if I tried to use the stock unlock buttin the aftermarket alarm would go off. I'm thinkin either somehow I shut it off or maybe blew a fuse. IDK please help!
AnswerIt appears from your expaination, that the
after market car alarm is in service mode.
Ok, try this.
Put the key in the ignition, and turn forward
all the way just before cranking. Then within
5 seconds, press and hold in the valet/overide
button, found under the dash area, usually to the
left of the leg drilled into a hidden away spot,
until the installed LED (the blinking light)
in your dash area goes off, and the siren chirps twice.
(Your valet switch might be the toggle (on/off) type.
in this case, key on, flip switch in oposite direction,
key off.)
This should reset the alarm.
Just Repeat these steps to place it
back to valet mode.
That should do it.
Let me know what happens.
