Questionmy daughter bought a elentra 20007 and had it for 2 weeks when the alarm started going off at random time of the day and night. It was an annoyance. We took it to our garage where it sat for 3 days with no alarm. They replaced the hood switch pad and sent it home next morning it started going off again every 30 seconds to 3 minutes. We took it to the local hyundia dealer it sat for 2 day no alarm. They said that a small metal clip under hood gets bent down and straightened it and sent it home.Next morning the alarm went off again from 6:30 am til she took it back at8:30 it wen off every 30 sec to 3 mins. We took it back to the dealers where has sat for 3 days with no issues.The only thing we can think is she put a progressive snapshot in it. Could that be causing it and if so why only in front of the house and no where else?Hope you can help us the neighbors as tired of hearing it as we are.
AnswerThere are 2 possible alarms in this car.
The first is the oem horn honking, headlight flashing
system Hyundai uses, and the other might be after market.
There are ways to disable both, but not to be shared
openly here. I made www.DISARMALARM.com for that purpose
to be able to supply that info so I have
a record of who got it in case a crime is commited
using it.
There is a way to just turn it off by grounding
out the right wire.
I don't think the Snaphot module in the underdash molex is
setting either alarm however.
If it's a siren involved, that's aftermarket, and has
a different fix entirely.
