Question
Just had the truck seviced and the silencer alarm system does not work. The dealer who serviced the truck has given me several solutions none of which worked. This system uses the factory keyless unluck button to disarm or enable the ignition. Three years ago it saved my vehicle from being stolen and I want it working again. How do I reset it and get it working properly again. It is like it has no power to the device. They say it has power, is grounded and shoud be working. It isn't. Please help. Thanks.

Answer
Should be no problem really.
It appears from your expaination, that the
after market car alarm is in service mode.

Ok, try this.
Put the key in the ignition, and turn forward
all the way just before cranking. Then within
5 seconds, press and hold in the valet/overide
button, found under the dash area, usually to the
left of the leg drilled into a hidden away spot,
until the installed LED (the blinking light)
in your dash area goes off, and the siren chirps twice.
(Your valet switch might be the toggle (on/off) type.
in this case, key on, flip switch in oposite direction,
key off.)

This should reset the alarm.

Just Repeat these steps to place it
back to valet mode.

That should do it.
Let me know what happens.
