03 GTZ - Issues With Stock Alarm
Hi guys, new to this site.. just googled my problem and saw this place- it looks like a godsend and I'm excited to spend some time on here.
Here is an ongoing issue I've been having: I own an '03 GTZ with the stock alarm system. All of the buttons on my keyless entry seem to work fine and all of my fuses look good. The problem is that after I leave the car the alarm will tend to turn on for either no reason at all or for really petty reasons like heavy winds.
I've tried to find a place to adjust the sensitivity but couldn't find one- I had the dealer check it out and they told me there is no adjustment and there's nothing they can do as far as that goes.
They did point out that there are two seperate horns- one that sits behind my bumper (behind the fog light) and one above it (behind the headlight). Both are on the driver's side of the car (I don't know if that information means anything though, ha). We figured I could just disconnect the alarm horn so as not to bother the neighbors, and just pray no one actually tries to break into the car. I was told that the bottom horn is wired to my steering wheel and the top one is part of the alarm. We even tested it.
However, the alarm would still be tripped and the horn would be set off despite the top one being disconnected. And it is the entire alarm system-the lights are flashing, etc. I now have both disconnected, which is bothersome since I am now unable to honk if someone is about to back into me or something.
Does anyone know what could be causing this or have any suggestions? I would like to have both a functioning alarm and a working horn, but could live with only having the horn.
Thanks!
