alarm!!!!

How do you disable the alarm this is a real pia

ok for some of you you may wonder why but where we live we don't need a alarm

I keep telling my wife to quit locking it and she wont have that trouble but it is a habit

where we live my closest neighbor is 3 miles away and we are the only house on the road

If you mean anti-theft? You can't. You really don't say, which alarm?

That's the parameter alarm which mine, a '09 doesn't have. You'd have to look in your owner's manual to see if there is anything that can be changed or turned OFF. You didn't mention what year it was.

Are you sure it's not a faulty hood switch or something?

Does the factory system actually come with a proximity alarm? Those things are so 80's/90's and annoying (like when they go off because someone walked past your car)... finicky as hell. I'm surprised something like that would be in a factory alarm.

it is an 05 escape

i was looking under dash and I found that this thing has a remote start it is an actual ford one the dealer was no help I am thinking there settings in the remote start

does anyone have a manual for this remote start

I went back to where I bought it and they had one 2 button remote but couldn't say for sure if it is for mine or not

my wife said it did it the other night at work too

could it have anything to do with the dam door ajar light that works when it feels like it
