Hi all,
My car has been sitting out in the cold while I was traveling for the last 6 weeks. I had AAA come and jump it today, when the engine started the theft alarm (horn) started blaring. My key fob's battery is dead so I have been manually unlocking the driver side door for the last year.

Any suggestions on what I could to turn the alarm off when the car starts? (I tried hitting the red panic button on the fob but it didn't do anything, likely because the fob's battery is dead)

Thank you!

Try replacing the fob battery, They're cheap.

with the alarm blaring, unlock the drivers door with your key, it should stop it.

Put the key in the drivers side door, then make your connection to the battery.. alarms activates of course, then run back to the key in the door and rotate to the unlock position.

Another method is to connect the jumper cables flat on the battery and see if the cables are not too thick to shut the hood. Then make the second connection to the vehicle supplying power.
The alarm won't activate as long as power is supplied while the hood is latched shut. It is tricky or maybe not possible to get the jumper cables to lay flat depending on their design and
make a good connection... I prefer the key method and making the dash to the door, the alarm will only be on for a few seconds.

I think you answered your own question along with the other peoples responses.

Are you asking for a "permanent" way to have this disabled for future situations so you don't have to dash to the driver's door to deactivate?
