Car Alarms: 1994 Nissan Maxima, nissan maxima, dash area


Question
Hello, My wife opened the door and the alarm went off. I tried to close the door and lock and unlock the drivers door method but it didnt work. My key isnt orginal and it also doesnt unlock all doors when the key is turned twice. is there a lock problem? is there anyother way to kill cut anything to the alarm. Thanks Jason Hill----Im looking foward to your response.

Answer
No if it's the factory system the only way
is to put the key in the drivers side door,
tun all the way left then right. If that doen'nt
work, and it is in fact the factory system,
you'll need to take it over to Nissan for some
service on it. If it's an aftermarket system
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,
until the installed LED (the blinking light)
in your dash area stays on solid. This is
Valet overide.
(Your valet switch might be the toggle (on/off) type.
in this case, key on, flip switch in oposite direction,
key off.)

This should stop the alarm from working, and only the
keyless system would work if installed,

Just Repeat these steps to place it
back to usable armed mode.

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 for
the vehicle, and reverse engineer it wire
by wire, until it's safely removed.

If it does not work oit this way, you will have
to replace the system with one you know how
to operate and what to expect.

Let me know what happens.
