i just purched a 1999 rodeo and really like the truck, but how do i turn off the horn when the alarm is turned on or off?

 

If you have an owners manual its in there. If you dont have one I will look it up and post tomorrow. Dont have my manual here at the moment.

 

The manual only showes how to turn it on. I tried the three door lock two close,three more locks, one close nothing happens. What am I missing in the setup? Thanks for your help.

 

Its the same procedure for turning it on or off. If its already on, doing the procedure should turn it off. Sometimes it takes a few tries to get it. I've done it a couple times on mine, took several tries.

 

thanks i will keep tring

 

OK i tried 10 times nothing happens!! am i supposed to get a
response from the door lock or what? I am locking the door 3 times shut
it twice lock 3 more times then shut and open the door again. What am i
missing?

 

Sounds like you are doing it right as long as you are doing the lock/unlock within 10 seconds and the close/open as fast as you can.

I just did it on mine. Half the time it worked. When it works the door will lock then unlock once. The manual says if it fails it should lock/unlock 3 times but when it failed on mine it did nothing.

Start with the door unlocked and closed for a minute or so, then open it and do the procedure. I know it works on mine atleast [img]smileys/smiley8.gif[/img]

 

Are you guys talking about being able to turn the horn off when you lock/unlock the doors with the keyless entry? I kinda find the horn on this thing to be somewhat annoying, so if you can make it stop beeping when you lock/unlock the door I wanna do it.


If i'm right, could you lay the steps out for me. If I'm not right, well then ignore my stupidity. [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

 

Yep thats what we are talking about.

1. Drivers door open.
2. Insert the key into the driver's door key cylinder, and turn to lock and unlock 3 times (lock -> unlock -> lock -> unlock -> lock -> unlock) within 10 seconds.
3. Close and Open the door 2 times (close -> open -> close -> open) within a 10 second period.
4. Turn the key to lock and unlock 3 times (lock -> unlock -> lock -> unlock -> lock -> unlock) within 10 seconds again.
5. Close and Open the door.
Response of door lock motor (Lock, Unlock once if successful. Lock, Unlock 3 times if fail).

I have mine on but I replaced the horn with an 'american' style horn so it doesnt sound so goofy.

Awesome! Thanks.


I was actually thinking of replacing the horn on mine also.
