I WAS WONDERING IF THERE IS A WAY TO MAKE THE LIGHTS BLINK WHEN THE STOCK ALARM IS ACTIVATED AND DEACTIVATED?? I DIDNT GET A MANUAL WITH MY CAR AND I HAVE GOTTEN MORE HELP FROM THIS FORUM THEN I HAVE AT THE DEALERS, THANKS IN ADVANCE.

 

i dont think so but i would like to see them blink this way you know its locked up

 

I'm sure you could do it by adding a relay but I don't know which wires you need to tap into. Sorry.

 

BUT WHAT ABOUT MAKING THE HORN BEEP WHEN THE ALARM IS ACTIVATED? SOMTHING? I HATE NOT KNOWING IF THE DOORS ARE LOCKED OR NOT, THANKS GUYS

 

did the 2.5's come with a stock alarm??? i have a little light on my driver side door that says security and it blinks. i don't have a controller for it. is the light just there for show or what??

 

i dont think .5's have stock security
i have a aftermarket and i love it remote start , and my lights flash

 

No its not for show. Its a factory alarm. It protects the hood, trunk, and all 4 doors, no glass though. It does come with a remote, you're probably just missing it. I didn't have mine either when I bought my car so I just went to the dealer and bought one for $60.00. If you want to hear your alarm go off just lock your doors but keep one window open, wait till the alarm arms (about 15 seconds, you'll notice the LED flashing pattern changes) and reach in and unlock the door. Then when it goes off just put your key in the door and unlock and it will shut off. Its better when you have the remote.

 

damm I didnt know that the 2.5 TL stock alarm you could get a remote for? I thought the only way you can arm is it by closing the door and locking it with the key....

 

My 97 2.5TL didn't come with a remote for the car, I called the dealer and they said there wasn't one for my car. The 97 has the factory alarm that has a cutoff switch. When the car is ON, the Led on top of the steering column is on, before you turn the car off click the cut off switch and the LED will go out. Lock the doors and stand in front of the car, within 20-25 seconds the parking lights will flash one time to signal it is armed. When you get back into the car, as soon as you open the doors the headlights, taillights, dashlights and radio will start blinking and won't stop until you deactivate the alarm. You will not be able to
start the car and just clicking the cut off switch will not do it. There is a procedure, PM me and I'll tell you.

 

i idnt have a stock one but now i got the viper with remote start under car neons turn on with remote and soon to have the windows roll up and down

 

How much did for the setup?

 

I'm guessing there are differnt type of factory alarms for the 1st gen TL.

 

well, 96TL is right. i did exactly what he told me and it worked. now at least i have a little more sense of security. thanx.
