Car Alarms: 1997 Grand Caravan Flashing lights, valet mode, grand caravan


Question
i just purchased a 97 Grand Caravan and every time that the doors are opened the dash, hazard and radio lights flash like 10 to 15 times and then shut off. The owner said that she had this happen since she bought the van and there is no alarm, I see a red light that is under the radio like an alarm button, Is there something I can do to stop this from happening?

Answer
Ok, an installer would place the velet switch in a semi
hidden area. I'd 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

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.
