QuestionQUESTION: Hi! I hope you can help. I am seriously annoyed by the motion detector aspect of the car alarm in my new Chrysler 300C. It means I can't lock my dog in the car while I run in for a quart of milk. I am willing to disable the alarm altogether, but the dealership told me it's not possible. Can you please offer any help? Thanks in advance.
ANSWER: Odd since that device is not part of the "factory"
system.
I need to determine whether it's a factory alarm
issue or, if it's an aftermarket system you are
dealing with.
Is it: Headlights flashing, car horn honking
and a worded SECURITY" light in the dash flashing?
(doubtfull since none of the notes show this
car as having a factory alarm system)=FACTORY
Or,
is it: flashing parking lights,
an LED in the dash area, and a siren
going off?= AFTER MARKET
Let me know more on this to better
advise you on a course of action
to take.

QUESTION: Hello again. Well I believe that it is the horn honking (not a siren), but there is also an LED light that flashes in the dash. The instructions for the alarm are included in the pre-printed Owners Manual, so I assumed it was factory installed????
AnswerTHERE IS A WAY, HOWEVER A TECHICIAN WOULD NEED
TO DO THIS WORK:
TO DISARM THE ALARM YOU MUST USE A
POSITIVE PULSE THROUGH A 680 OHM RESISTOR.
IF YOU USE A DOUBLE PULSE THIS WILL ALSO
UNLOCK THE DOORS. YOU MUST USE RELAYS!
BUT IT'S FAIRLY INVOLVED. COMPLEX CAR HERE.
TAKE THESE NOTES TO A TECHNICIAN WHEN YOU GO.
I HOPE THIS GETS YOU ON THE RIGHT TRACK.
A.
