Car Alarms: Prestige APS2K4MS Alarm, valet mode, truck ford


Question
Washed the remote so it does not work, neither will truck. Ford F250 alarm will not shut off, tried valet mode will not activate. Can't drive truck to take it anywhere as ignition is locked. Any suggestions? How do I disconnect the alarm? 2004 model bought used, prestige installed before I bought it.

Answer
"ignition is locked"

Sorry, but the after market alarm is not the trouble.
This is a Ford PATS issue. The electronics
might be part of it, but not the mechanics.

Contact the local dealer for assistance as after market
alarms are not capable of "locking" an ignition
mechanically. They should inspect it.
