ok. ive got an alarm on my car (id rather not say what model) and when i would arm it or disarm it, the lights would flash. they dont flash anymore. is it cuz i did something on the remote??? or is somethin wrong with it.

 

Turn on the lights and see if they are burnt out.

 

read your manual. then check the wire that's hooked up to the parking signal wire.

 

my lights work...the bulbs arent burnt out.

my manual doesnt show which wire is hooked up, and i dont know where the guy hooked it up -....should i just take it back to the place i got it installed?

 

where is thebrain hooked up at? under dash? wiring coulda got loose?

 

some alarms have a feature that is a stealth arming that doesn't do the lights or beeps, (guess for nice neighborhoods when you don't want to wake the neighbors )
anyway, maybe you've selected this feature somehow.
or is your alarm is no longer arming, then it might be in valet mode.

I don't think he'd want to announce where his brain is on a public forum.

 

Depending on what brand alarm you have, it could be a fuse (alarm fuse; not car fuse)

 

just bring it back to where you got it installed and have them fix it for you, it would be your best bet cause you don't want to mess with the brain cause it could just do further damage...good to know that the car is safe...GL

 

I have that same problem. I traced it back to the brain. The lead on the brain that outputs the park lamp function fried. The connector turned brown as did the wire attached to it. When the weather warms up, i'm going to cut the wire that is burnt and bypass the harness for it and attach it directly to the brain connector.

But ya, that's one possibility.

 

found the problem!!! it WAS a loose wire in the brain. i guess the rough roads here in daygo knocked it loose. (f#^% potholes!!!)

 

haha. I thought so that Jamee was kinda of a girlie name.
