How can I turn my car alarm off manually ?

[cat171]

When I lock it using the plip thingy (so the alarms set) all is fine until some plum comes past with a loud exhaust or stereo etc, this means that the car alarm goes off, it does it quite a lot:dapprove:

As i'm off to sarfend tomorrow night, I just want to turn it off for a bit, I need to have the car locked too.

Can this be done ??

Last time I went there I got fed up with it going off (so did everyone else) so I left it unlocked while we stood round.

Thanks.

turn the ignition on and off twice then lock with the fob, does it for mine.

my alarms fucked, so it won't lock without it going off, i have to turn it off every time i lock it

Just lock with the key. Don't think it turns the alarm on.

You turn the key in the ignition 3 or 4 times (can't remember which it is, I just to 4 to make sure!) Then when you lock it it beeps 4 times so you know it's worked. I have to do this quite often at night as the damn thing always goes off!!

I don't think it turns the whole alarm off, just the interior sensors but it stops it from going off everytime someone with a loud exhaust goes past.

Its ignition on/off twice and it deactives the volumetrics like you say. The alarm is still active perimiter wise.

does this mean if you turn the ignition on/off twice that it mutes the siren ?? would the lights still flash ? if someone with a loud exhaust went past ?

Meh, last time i went there was a few years ago tbh. I get my fill of the "cruse scene" at maccy d's on a thursday night. I work sundays, have a good chuckle there though.

It disables the interior sensors, the alarm will still trigger as normal if someone were to open the doors/boot/bonnet just it wouldn't go off if someone smashed a window for example only if they opened the door. The V6 alarm seems to suffer from oversensitivity a lot on the ultrasonics part.

I did that four clicks on & off stuff, nothing happened though. Locking it with the key ftw !

Thats because its ignition on and off twice .

 

[cat171]

Well I say I did it, someone who knows what they are doing did it, I just stood & watched. They announced that mine doesn't do it.
