Hyundai accent 5DR 2005 car alarm keeps going off..

Car is locked, doors and hatchback trunk are shut tight but the trunk ajar light is lit up on the instrument panel. Car senses it's open - but it's not and the alarm keeps going off. The alarm is factory installed by hyundai. To top it off when I press down on the brake pedal the trunk ajar light goes out! Can I disconnect the alarm or someting so that I can stop this from happening

It sounds to me all you need is to adjust the trunk hatch. Its going out when you hit the brakes so the switch isn't bad. It may be worn but if you can push on it and the light goes out it is the reason your alarm is going off. Make sure there isn't debris under the rubber seal preventing it from fully closing.

SOURCE: Imobilising car alarm on Hyundai Getz

it may be worth while changing the battery in the remote as it takes more power to send the frequency to disarm than to illuminate the l.e.d.

SOURCE: hyundai accent gs trunk smashed. dash light and back bulb on.

Drivers side kick panel(down by the hood latch) where your left foot is. There is also one under the hood by the drivers side strut tower. If nobody lost it there should even be a fuse puller in there. On the back of the fuse cover is a diagram that tells you which fuse is which.

SOURCE: Alarm Issues

I have been having this same issue for the past 6 months. So far no one can give me an answer that solves the problem. I have done several things unsuccessfully 1) changed the battery (still happens) 2) flipped the valet toggle switch under the steering column (still happens) 3) I lock the doors using the automatic lock button on the driver and/or passenger door (the alarm will not self-activate and go off, but this still doesn't solve the root problem with the alarm)

SOURCE: I have a 1999 Hyundai Accent 2 door hatchback. The

best way to find a short is to unplug all parts that feed of that fuse put a new fuse in and then one by one plug things back in till the fuse pops.

Car alarm went off reset went off again within 3 min had tomanual lock , dome light on while driving

it sounds like you have a door open that is why the light is on. it may not be a actual open door but a faulty door ajar switch. that would explain why the alarm keeps going off. i would start by opening and shutting all doors includingthe hood and hatch.
if that does not fix it-a gm dealer with a tech 2 scanner should be able to located which door ajar switch is bad.

Door ajar light stays lit when all doors are shut 2005 GMC Canyon

Hi,
This seems that either of the door switches is/are faulty. Try pushing the switches fully on each plunger switch on each door individually, keeping the other doors closed while you do. See if one of them causes the light to go out. If you do find one turns the light off, it's an adjustment problem with the plunger switch. May still need to be replaced if it won't depress enough with the door closing to turn off.Let us know if you were looking for something more else please accept the suggestion.

Alarm goes off for no reason.

this could be a couple of minor things which we can check first, open and close each door to see if they all operate the courtesy lights, open the trunk and push the trunl light button to ensure it is switching off. there may also be a button under the hood. lastly check the glove box button is turning off the glove/jockeybox light when it is closed. if any of these fail, that is the button that needs to be removed and inspected. Good luck

Door ajar alarm

The doorlach pin is faulty.
On newer vehicles it is inside the door on the locking mechanism.
It is stuck in the closed position, or has become dislodged.
Refer to your mechanic for repair.
