Car Alarms: car alarm goes off whenever., siren sound, honda civic ex


Question
Hi, I have a 2007 honda civic ex with a navi system and a car alarm I just bought. Its has around 60,000 miles on it, but the alarm will go off if I do anything. If I hit the remote key unlock button, the trunk release button, even if I just open the door. The alarm goes off with a siren sound, the lights flash, and there is a little led light on the dash that flashes. I think it might be an aftermarket alarm system. What can I do to like disable it/fix it?

Answer
You'll need to set off the alarm for a few seconds.
Then, look under the dash area for a button or, a toggle
switch. When you locate it, turn on the ignition
key, press and hold in the button (little
spring loaded micro button, red or black possibly)
until the alarm chirps 1 time. This should over ride
the system, and only the keyless entry part,
if installed, would still be operating.
The LED (light emiting diode) light in the dash
should also go on solid.

At this point. the alarm would have reset.
If this had a starter kill relay installed,
it would now be opened, and the engine would
turn over when tried.

You would repeat these steps to go back to
user mode to see if this was corrected.

But if it does work, I'd keep it this way, and
replace the alarm asap with one you know and
understand how it operates for the best overall
experience.

Let me know if it works for yours.
