Question
Sir, I accidentally hit the automate spring button on my dash board and now the automate alarm does not beep when I lock or unlock the car. Can you please tell me how to reset/reactivate the alarm sound. I know it still works and the alarm goes off when I press the Panic button. Thank you!

Edward

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.

This should reset the alarm.

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

(In valet mode, take the vehicle to a local
car alarm shop to evaluate the shock sensor
settings and if all componants are up to snuff.
Makes for a better experience.)

That should do it.
Let me know what happens.
