I can't stop my alarm from going off on my 1997 Pontiac Grand AM (5 speed),
2 door. I have ( I am pretty sure), a factory installed alarm on this car.
I disconnected the battery to bypass the alarm system but now it won't
stop going off when I reconnect the battery. I have already turned the key
to the run position and then tried to reconnect the batter, but it is still
going off. Can anyone help me please. Thank you

this happened to me befire a couple of times and here was the remedy that
worked for me. lock all the doors on you car then enter the car physically
using your key this should take care of that.  this happened to me at a
crowded mall (embarassing as hell as you can imagine) and i had to call the
dealer on my cell phone and he instructed me to do the above.  this is an
intermittent problem that i have had for over 4 years now but at least i
know how to fix it. hope this helps fix your problem.

Foggy, this is for you....I have done everything there is under the sun to
stop the alarm from going off. I have locked, unlocked and relocked and
still nothing. I can't even reconnect the battery because it sounds the
alarm. I do not have a remote control key alarm. All's I have is the
regular key to lock, unlock and start the car. So, what other information
do you have for me? I know you have some becausse you sound like you know
what you are doing....*S*..Thank you sweetie in advance

is it a siren or your horn? if its a siren, track teh wires back to the
module its coming from and take it out, if its a horn, admit defeat and ahve
it looked at by a professional, seems like you've tried most everything

I forgot to mention. This is to M.C. Tee, I did trace the wires to the
inside of the car to the or near the fuses panel, I found a black and red
(which led from the siren under the hood), wire. The wire led me to the
main wires to the whole electrical system, but I wasn't sure which or
where to disconnect the wire, I don't want to cause a fire. Could you tell
me how to take the wires apart without causing any trouble for the rest of
the car? And, when I do take it apart, can I leave it apart?
Thank you

gosh almighty

did you try what i told you?  lock all your doors then re -enter car with
your key not your remote.  then put key in the ignition and try to
start.....then the alarm should stop.  it sounds stupid but it worked for
me.
