I'm new to the forum but I've had my Tc for a year and a half. This is the first time I've had a real issue. Now that its 4th of July, my neighbors around me are setting off fireworks constantly. Last night, they were setting off ones with huge explosions which was setting off the alarm on my Tc. I kept having to get up to turn it off with the key. Is there anyway to turn off the alarm for the night? I believe I have the stock alarm. Thanks for any help.

 

is this the scion alarm system from the dealership?

 

I wish my 469 scion alarm made any noise at all!! lucky u!

 

just pull the horn and hazard fuse out. That will kill the horn and the flasher until you put it back in. Another way is to turn the sensitive on the alarm down.

 

yes its the alarm system from the dealership.

I don't know how to turn the sensitive down.

 

is it the scion security?

 

I don't think its scion security. Doesn't that have some switch next to the mirror adjustments?

 

not a switch, but an alarm light there... i guess your dealer just sold you a third party alarm system and installed it for you.

but yea, i would follow emptystreets advice and for the time being just pull out the fuse untill the 5th or 6th of July! good luck

 

there is a light there that blinks when the alarm is set. when i originally got the car, I swear the dealer said there was a switch down by the hood release to turn the alarm off but I looked before and there was nothing.

 

hhhhmmmmm. i have no idea...

 

well thanks for trying. I think I'm going to just disconnect something to make it stop.

 

There is a vallet option, which i think turns it off.

 

what's the valet option?

 

deal with it because someone could come by and break in. so if i were you id just weather the storm or tell those a holes to do that somewhere else

 

If they're anything like my neighbors they'll be drunk and just aim them at your house instead.

 

hahahahah

 

haha that happened lol
in dallas texas a group of kds were popping fireworks and some guy got mad because of the noise and shot into the croud. so the threw lit fireworks in his apartment and burned it down
