HELP! car alarm goes off when battery is connected
Just installed a new battery and when I hook up both terminals the alarm goes off...any ideas of what is going on?? I've tried using the lock/unlock buttons on the key but nothing
I think you had the factory alarm "on" or something to that nature when the old battery was in the car... So when you installed the new battery, the system thinks it still "on", close the hood and all doors tight and just press the transmitter to unlock, it should go "off"...
Last time that happened to me... the battery terminals on the new battery were backwards. Hooked the positive to the negative... and so forth. Blew a couple fuses. Honked like crazy though! Know it sounds stupid... but
