This is a feature on many alarms. What kind of alarm is it? Open up the dash, pull out the brain, and get the make and model number.

On some alarms you have to set a jumper, on others you just have to play with that switch/button.

I tryed to play with the switch and arm and disarm it but can't get it fixed as for the make and model i can't find where they hid the brain i will keep looking thanks

Thanks Shane

I dont know if you have looked there already, but try looking for the brain behind the passenger kick panel, thats where mine was.

Does your key fob look like?

I think that i found the "brain" but there is nothing writen on it. I think that i am going to have to break down and take it some where and get it fixed. Also if something did go wrong with it what do you guys think of the crime guard alarms that crutchfield sells???

Thanks for your help

Im not sure if crime guard is made by the same ppl as crime stopper, it seems like it, but I just bought a crime guard alarm from ebay (cuz crutchfield has crazy prices), not really for the security, but more for the keyless entry I always wanted. The alarm itself is actually pretty decent, and came with all hardware needed (I got model #cs-2001fc) for $50. Like Brent from camaroz28.com said, "I don't care if you have a $50 alarm or a $1000 alarm, if the $50 alarm is installed properly it will perform similar to the $1000 alarm but maybe not have all the bells and whistles." I'd say it was worth the money I paid.

Does your remote have anything written on it?

If you can identify the alarm, the procedure to turn off the "auto arm" feature is simple.

No the keychain don't have anything writen on it I think that the whole thing is just wore out

Thanks anyway you guys were helpful
