Car Alarms: Car Alarms, chevy cavalier, dash area


Question
Good Morning,
 I have a 2001 Chevy Cavalier, with a dealer installed "Executive" alarm. Recently the car was left for three days with the lights on and the battery went totally dead. When trying to jump the battery, the alarm goes off and cannot be silenced.
I think a new battery may fix the problem, but if it doesn't, how do I silence or remove the alarm system?
 Thanks for the help
   Tom

Answer
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,
until the installed LED (the blinking light)
in your dash area comes on solid.
(Your valet switch might be the toggle (on/off) type.
in this case, key on, flip switch in oposite direction,
key off.)

This should be valet. This overides
the starter kill relay in the alarm harness,
and returns the car back to disarmed mode.

The only thing that will work now on your system,
is the keyless entry if installed.

Just Repeat these steps to rearm your system.

That should do it.
If you still want to remove it at this point,
take it to your neighborhood installer
for this, or buy the wiring chart for
the vehicle, and reverse engineer it wire
by wire, until it's safely removed.

Let me know what happens.
