QuestionTHE FACTORY ALARM DOES NOT ARM WHEN THE VEHICLE IS LOCKED (BY REMOTE OR DOOR LOCK BUTTON). THERE IS A RED LIGHT IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER THAT ONLY ILLUMINATES WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED AND TURNS OFF. BUT SHOULD BLINK OR COME ON AT THE LOCKING AND CLOSING OF ALL DOORS AFTER 15-16 SECONDS.
ALL THE FEATURES OF THE REMOTE WORK (LOCK/UNLOCK,REAR AND SIDE AUTOMATIC DOORS,AND EVEN THE PANIC WORKS).
AnswerIt appears from your expaination, that the
after market car alarm is in service mode.
Ok, try this.
Put the key in the ignition, and turn forward
all the way just before cranking. Then within
5 seconds, press and hold in the valet/overide
button, found under the dash area, usually to the
left of the leg drilled into a hidden away spot,
until the installed LED (the blinking light)
in your dash area goes off, and the siren chirps twice.
(Your valet switch might be the toggle (on/off) type.
in this case, key on, flip switch in oposite direction,
key off.)
This should reset the alarm.
Just Repeat these steps to place it
back to valet mode.
That should do it.
Let me know what happens.
