Questioni just bought a 96 s-10 blazer...
i only got one button lock controller...
is there a way to disable the alarm...seeing that i need to swich keys for my wife to drive..the alarm comes on automatically when you lock the door..and it wont start without hitting the unlock button on the key controller
AnswerThe alarm is is passive arming mode.
At least we know it's installed correctly
which is actually a good thing here.
There are feature settings that can toggle to
ACTIVE mode, but I get your meaning.
You just want to get it out of your face. Gotcha!
Ok, 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.
If you want to remove it at this point,
take it to your neighborhood installer
for this, or buy the wiring chart
(Go to: www.vehiclewires.com)
for the vehicle, and reverse engineer it wire
by wire, until safely removed.
Let me know if you have any issues.
