Car Alarms: 96 Mitsubishi Eclipse Car Alarm Going off Randomly, mitsubishi eclipse, eclipse car


Question
I have a 96 Eclipse and my car alarm has started going off at random times.

The issue I'm pretty sure is connected to that fact that my driver side door has not been closing properly (the hinge is damaged, so it requires a bit of a slam to close properly).  Is there a way to disable the car alarm (the car is old so theft isnt an issue at this point).  Or is there something I can look for in or around the door that would help stop this from happening?

Thanks

Answer
You'll need to set off the alarm for a few seconds.
Then, 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.

At this point. the alarm would have reset.
If this had a starter kill relay installed,
it would now be opened, and the engine would
turn over when tried.

The system should be disabled now.

Let me know if it works for yours.
