Car Alarms: Kill switch on 2003 Tiburon, valet mode, dash area

Question
The alarm remote went bad in my 2003 Tiburon, so I allowed the alarm to go on when I opened the door with the key.  I put the key in the ignition and turned it to acc. which is what the dealership said to do, unfortunately, it must have a kill switch, cause now the car won't start.  Any suggestions.

Answer
Hmmm, it's likely to be an after market system.

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 to remove the alarm.
This might require a local technician to
identify it, and affect neccesary service for you.

That should solve the troubles.

Let me know what you discover.
