Car Alarms: 97 honda crv wont start and alarm keeps going off, honda crv, valet mode


Question
Last night my car got broken into and they ended up taking my car alarm remote. At first I thought the alarm didn't work cuz my brother messed up some wires. But now when I unlock the car manually the alarm goes off and when I try to put the key in the ignition it won't turn. I have no way to start it or to turn the alarm off. BTW when I close the doors the alarm shut off but when I try to open it again it goes on. Again

Hmmm, might need to be evaluated by a tech to
trouble shoot the issue. Until then, to try to disarm it,
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.=VALET/OVERIDE
( if this is a remote starter, the antenna on the
front window glass may also have the over ride
button inset into it.)

This stops the alarm except for the keyless
entry if installed. Once in Valet mode,
it will allow the car to start and operate
like there was no alarm at all.

The next step is if wanting to remove it,
you contact a local technician to
locate it, and affect neccesary service
for you.

That should solve the troubles.

Let me know what you discover.
