The sounding alarm maybe a security system installed by in the truck. Disconnecting the battery will only temporarily solve your problem, but will resume once you reconnect the battery for electrical power.

You must find the keychain/remote of the security system and disable it. If you are unable to locate this, you can have it disconnected by a qualified automotive electrician.

Word of caution though, if you are using the keyless entry system with the security system, this will be disabled until you install a receiver with such function.

Hope this helps.

I need help with my chevy s10 2000
sounds like bad battery, also check for parasitic drains on electrical system. Batteries usually start going bad in summer or warm months and when it is colder there is a larger draw on battery current.

2000 Jetta GLS 5 speed. I bought a new car, I went for a ride in it, drove and idled great. Went to start it later and alarm went off, it turned off after a minute but now the car wont start, battery...
This is a wild guess, but disconnect the positive terminal from your battery. Touch the cable (that went to the positive) to the negative, to drain out any capacitor in the system that is holding charge. I think you have to short it that way for about 10 seconds. Reconnect cable to positive and start car.

That will reset your computer and should reset the alarm as well.

I have a factory installed alarm on my 2003 jeep cherokee ,how do i disable alarm
Hello! The drivers side door lock/unlock switch is more than likely defective...Having said that, the alarm system on Jeeps are a constant problem...To disable the system requires removing the drivers door panel and cutting the Light Green/Orange wire at the switch...And installing a 465 Ohm resistor...Not something done without the necessary skills...
I would have the vehicle towed to a Jeep dealer and have them test the drivers door switch and disable the alarm....Guru...saailer

2000 acura TL horn blows when replacing the battery
dont you have the alarm key fob? if so that will reset it. just press unlock. If you dont an dits not a OEM Acura alarm you will need to find who makes it and get a new key fob, or have a shop that does alarms to disconnect it.

remove your positive lead from the battery. Climb under the vehicle and remove the 3 wires attached to the starter, remove the 2 bolts holding the starter in place, install new starter in reverse order.
