Car alarm problem/ question

[kickingfrog]

Today, every time I lock my car the manufacture installed alarm goes off. Usually this means that a window or door is open, or not completely shut. This isn't the case today, but I wonder if the blowing snow has got in some place? I don't give a rat's butt about the alarm, but I (and I'm sure my neighbours) don't want it going off all the time. Can disable it? Nothing in the owners manual about that.

 

Ideas?

Bummer!

My Tahoe has been acting up lately. The drivers side rear door lock mechinism freezes and only partially engages or disengages the lock. When the vehicle is warm, no problem. Is there a chance it could have condensation/freezing issues? If you can keep it warm overnight and try to recreate the problem, you might have a direction to follow.

Not sure about newer vehicles, but I always just took the fuse out for the alarm system. It may not be inside the car, rather under the hood somewhere.

What year is the car make and modle?

I myself ran into the same problem a few years ago.

My alarm was always going off after i locked the car.

Tured out that my swich the one that is mounted on the door itself had rust build up and had to be sanded down and hit with some WD40.

Never gave me problems after that.

 

You might want to look into that first.

could be an eazy fix

I had the exact same problem last year.
