im not sure if my car has one, i have keyless entry, 98 3.0 premium, and theres a blinking red light on the door lock that says security, plus if i hit the panic button on the fob it goes off... i want to get a new stereo but not without an alarm..

 

still works. light flashes and alarm beeps when you arm it. has nothing to do with the radio. the radio does have its own theft deterrent but thats just the code found under the ashtray.

 

yup, that's an alarm

 

but the alarm will only go off if someone tries to open up your door from the inside while the system's armed. if its an expensive stereo you are probably better off wiring in a shock sensor to trip the alarm if anyone smashes the window.

 

my concern is breaking glass, if someone shatters my window, i want the alarm to go off

 

I don't think our alarms are set up like that. I could be wrong though.

 

not when they break the window, but as soon as they open the door its star wars time. anyone else think our alarm sounds crazy?

 

didnt have a fob when we got the car so once we got one and heard the alarm it surprised the shit outta us. wtf was that!

 

Haha, I have concluded that our lock and unlock sound is half chihuahua, half police siren. and when the panic button is pressed..all I wanna do is cry. that shits ridiculous. and then its like a light show that goes off.

 

^I personaly love the lock and unlock chirp. It really helps when I just want to walk away and not have to stand by and hear for a quiet click. What pisses me off is when cars HONK when their locked... Holy. Crap...

 

i think that when the panic goes off, it sounds like the sound effect from when they shoot guns in star wars. today, go press it and think about a star wars gun haha and tell me what you think

 

Glass breaking requires a sound sensor, or a shock sensor, our car doesn't have either

 

So true I named mine X-Wing, it was the first thing me and my friends noticed when i got the car

 

my lock and unlock doesnt chirp. and my panic button doesnt either. weirdddddd. it only chirps if i try to lock it while the doors open and my trunk only pops if i really hold down on the button for like 3 seconds.

 

^^ that's normal operation. It makes sure that bumping the keychain won't pop the trunk.

To enable the chirp, hold Trunk and Lock at the same time for 4 seconds.

 

ok thanks mannnn

 

i took my siren off, and once this kid was walkin by my car, he didnt see me, he slightly touched my bumper and i started high beaming and pressing the horn every 2 second making it seem like the alarm went off, holy shit u should of seen this kid jet his ass out...LOL i was dyin in the car

 

It's a friggin laser

 

My doesn't chirp either. I'll have to try that. It definitely beats having to look for the brake lights and corners lights flashing in the middle of the day. It's almost impossible so I usually hit the button like 5 times to make sure.

 

u'll never be without it after you turn it on

 

^ when my original remote key fob died, the spare remote key fob chirp function was never enabled and didn't know how to enable it and went without it for a week. It drove me so crazy I had to flip through the owners manual to enable it again.

 

holy shit no way..

 

we had instructions! dealer fob discounted prices ftw.

 

Reading the owner's manual when buying a car FTW

 

You can hook up a shock sensor to the stock alarm??
Anyone have a diy on this if this is true?



Gangstas!!

 

^ yo thats da frat im pledging for next semester....irony :nods his head:

 

shogo, please stop with the useless pictures

 

hard to believe a 29 year old cannot control himself on the internet while drunk...

its not that hard...

 

its ok, last time i was drunk and i was on the Zine, me Fred and Nate hijacked three threads less than half hour...

 

Yeah I was real thrilled about that too

 

^^PFFFFTT! What was funny is that we didn't think we were doing anything wrong till we hijacked the third thread and Nate mentioned something about Chris. I was like..
crap...

The only other thread I've hijacked and whored since then was the 6th page of the "Current Projects" thread cause no one had anything else (or just didn't want to share) to work on.

Great, now we're hijacking the alarm thread..

:continuediscussiononfactoryalarmkeyfobs:

 

Yes, you hijacked the hell out of the projects thread, but at least you were doing something with a project

 

lol sorry chris, never again bro! lol

 

well i cannot express myself with a avatar so there u go i was postin pics and to Euro925 u have something brown on your nose son and ur breath smells of pooh
but ok no more pics mang sorry didnt know it was a problem i wil limit myself

 

i enjoy the chirp of teh alarm. and the alarm, i was at a flyers game and some sketchy kids were lookin in my car and i pressed panic and it scared them away.

but i've only activated the alarm when i've opened it from the inside while the alarm was activiated.

 

you're fucking sick. go eat your own shit.

 

^ i sense a

 

Aahhh if only to be 16 years old again and have the vocabulary of a 12 year old boy from the trailer park.
May God bless you!
And i don't think i was being sick, all i was saying was there no need for you to chime in with what the Moderator had told me or comment on me at all.

 

^why didn't you just say that? he probably wouldn't have gotten mad then. And he can comment on whatever he wants, this is a forum.

but in either respect this has nothing to do with the topic at all, so lets resume the regular conversation about alarms


and as far as the question you were asking i would suggest searching as i thought i saw a topic like you suggested about hooking up extra things to a stock alarm.
but your best bet would be to just find out on a different site, as they would probably have more info on a more general topic like that

 

you could have said that then. afterall, you are almost twice my age. Got any common sense sir?
