Triggering System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1997 Lincoln Town Car. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Alarm will be triggered when any of the following actions occur with alarm armed:

Any door is opened without first using door key, remote transmitter or keyless entry unlock code.
Hood is opened.
Ignition switch is tampered with.
Trunk lock is tampered with.

When alarm is triggered, horn will sound intermittently and lights will flash. After about 3 minutes, horns and lights will shut off automatically. System will then reset to an armed state and will trigger again if another intrusion occurs. Vehicle starting system will remain disabled until system is disarmed.
