Car Alarms: Prestige alarm, valet mode, prestige alarm

Question
Hi,
My daughter has a 1999 Nissan Maxima that she received from her grandfather.  He had a Prestige car alarm put in it some time ago and the alarm arms itself when you shut the car off and also attempts to arm itself when you are driving it.  Please advise if you know how we can remedy these problems.  Thank you very much for any assistance you can give.

Answer
Ok, seems to be in long tamper mode.
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.
