Car Alarms: After Market alarm system, valet mode, honda passport


Question
We have a 98 Honda Passport that has an aftermarket remote alarm to it. It is a seperate remote from the lock remote and you have to hit this button while turning the key to start the engine.  If you do not hit this button while turning the key, it will not start.  We lost this remote adn have not been able to start our car !!! can we cut the wires for this remote ??? How do we uninstall it?  It was placed by a previous owner?  thanks.

Answer
To start with, 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

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.
