Question
Hi I have a 1996 Mitsubishi Mirage and no idea what type of immobilize/alarm is installed but it was working fine then suddenly there was no sound anymore. I can activate and deactivate it, if its set and I try to start it starts but lights flash - no sound. The remote basically lets me lock, unlock and drive without hazard lights and thats it now. No chirps, sirens, immobilizer etc. Any suggestions???

Answer
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.
