Car Alarms: please help, valet mode, dash area


Question
our alarm doesnt make noise but it still unlocks the doors and our horn sometimes doesnt work but we are thinking of getting a new alarm and was wondering where it would be located on our car ? it is a 1999 honda civic lx? also do you think that since the alrm quit maing noise and that our horn did too, around the same time,could they be related?

Answer
Should be no problem really.
It appears from your expaination, that the
car alarm is in service mode.

Ok, try this.
Put the key in the ignition, and turn forward
all the way just before cranking. Then within
5 seconds, press and hold in the valet/overide
button, found under the dash area, usually to the
left of the leg drilled into a hidden away spot,
until the installed LED (the blinking light)
in your dash area goes off, and the siren chirps twice.
(Your valet switch might be the toggle (on/off) type.
in this case, key on, flip switch in oposite direction,
key off.)

This should reset the alarm.

Just Repeat these steps to place it
back to valet mode.

That should do it.
