Car Alarms: 96 sable factory alarm, alarmtek, shock sensor

Question
my neighbors tell me about 5am my sons alarm is going off for no reason, this has just started and I am baffled. I have pulled the fuse for the horn but the lites still flash. Can I disconnect the system till he can afford to get it fixed or is it a diy job?  thanks John

Answer
Probably a bad or too sensetive shock sensor.
For now, try this:

Put the key in the ignition, and turn forward
all the way just before cranking. Then within
5 seconds, locate, press and hold in the
valet/overide button, found under the
dash area, (push button, spring loaded)
until the installed LED (the blinking light)
in your dash area goes on solid,
and the siren chirps once.

(Your valet switch might be the toggle
(on/off) type. in this case, key on,
flip switch in opposite direction,
then turn the key off.)

This should reset the alarm.

At this point, the only thing working would
be the keyless entry from the alarm,
if it came equipped that way.

Just Repeat these steps to place it
back to usable armed mode.
You may get 2 chirps, confirming it,
and the lights may flash twice as well.

That should do it.
