Car Alarms: Executive Car Alarms, valet mode, car alarms


Question
I have a 1996 Honda Accord that I bought used. I didn't know it had an
Executive Car Alarm installed. The battery died three days ago due to
cold weather and age. I have installed a new battery, but now the car
won't start and the horn keeps going off. I don't know how to find the
valet switch to restart the car. Can anyone help me trace the wires or
give a suggestion of where the valet switch is?

Answer
Ok, an installer would place it 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.
