QuestionQUESTION: My remote key alarm access will not unlock my doors and disengage my trucks alarm. Once the door is open the alarm sounds and the engine is killed. How can I override the alarm or disengage the alarm all together? I have a spare set of keys with new batteries in the remote and I am still unable to disengage the alarm/kill switch!
ANSWER: Ok, should be fairly easy. 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.
That should solve the troubles for now.
Repeat the steps to toggle back to valet when needed.
Let me know what you discover.

QUESTION: Ok, I tried your suggestion and it's a no go! Let me tell you about what I did the first time this happened to me. I disconected the negitive battery cable and let the truck sit for about 10 minutes (my thinking that this would reset the alarm) after the second time it worked and I was able to get my truck home. This time I've tried your suggestion and the battery thing and I still can't ovrride the alarm/kill. I have looked up under the dash and found the factory alarm box but I don't find a master kill switch. Is there such a thing? I'm about ready to pull/RIP the whole thing out! I can't even get the truck started to get it to a professional!!
ANSWER: Is it a siren that goes off when the alarm is triggered?
or is it the horn & headlight flasher?

QUESTION: Headlights are flashing and horn is going off.
AnswerOk, first try this:
Key in the drivers door, turn left to disarm, then right
to unlock and open the door. If no joy,
there is a fix, but that's a bit of a problem here.
Because yours is a "FACTORY" or, OEM
(original Equipment Manufacturer) "alarm/security" system,
then the disabling procedure info for any given
specific vehicle is now deamed to be too sensitive to
publish here (as suggested by ALLEXPERTS administration.!).
So, to comply, as of March,22 08, this service is no longer
part of the volunteer information I can offer for free here at
ALLEXPERTS.com . Specific OEM/FACTORY alarm disarm/disabling
info is now available ONLY at the WIREWERX.
My installation wiring charts provide the proper wire colors,
polarities, and locations to install a keyless entry,
remote start or, car alarm system into any given vehicle,
or if just trying to disarm/disable your factory/OEM system,
there is a link there to get a tutourial on how to do it yourself
for only $3.99.
I hope you can appreciate the legal reasons behind not
providing this info any longer to just anyone who asks
for general consumption. By doing it this way, I'll
get a record of payment and a name/email address as
a stop gap to help prevent any unauthorized disabling of
your system or anyone elses, by a would be car thief!
Please go to the WIREWERX so I can get you the
info you require to fix your situation.
Hopefully, you can reset on your own first.
Good luck with this issue.
