Car Alarms: ford windstar alarm goes off for no reason, ford windstar, kick panel

Question
i have a 1998 ford windstar recently the alarm goes off itself for no reason even when the van is not locked. it is a factory alarm. it seems to stay off if i just lock the van once but still goes off from time to time like that. if i honk the horn it goes off almost every time within 20 mins. if you can give me any insight to the problem that would be great thanks

Answer
Normally, you would insert the key in
the drivers door, turn left, then right
to disarm and reset it. If yours is malfunctioning,
you can disable it for good by doing the following:

The FACTORY ALARM DISARM WIRE IS
green/purple |-| located in either kick panel.

Once Located, splice into this wire with
a simular guage wire, and put it to
a solid chassis ground. This terminates
the alarm functions entirely.

However, at this point, this car would be exceedingly
easy to steel, so I suggest you get an aftermarket
alarm system to protect it from here on in.

Have a good day.
