    Escape alarms went off due to cell weaknesses in the battery.. I acquired this peraon's response......... Originally Posted by Lime1GT Try testing the truck battery cells. My 05 Mustang with factory alarm would go off at different times whenever. I tested the battery cells after a recharge one day as the car wouldn't start on a minus 30 day. Two cells didn't meet the specific gravity test so I replaced it. Haven't had a problem with the alarm since. Go figure.." My suggestion? Don't talk about your alarm. Just ask to 'check the battery', for cranking power. Should a cells weak, if not dead, you may want to consider replacing the battery for $90. Go figure. Be casual and just talk battery :~)) ...

Bring the car to dealer,
ask... where is the alarm?
Say...where is the fuse for that alarm?
permit the attendant at hand to take out the fuse.

SOURCE: 2005 ford escape need alarm sensor location

This is not like an aftermarket alarm. It is built into the main computer and uses both the horn and the lights to sound a warning. The keyswitch has a reader and the ignition key must match the frequency recorded in the brain of the vehicle. It also kills the power to the starter and some even kill the ignition.

A shorted Battery will trigger the alarm, so have it fully tested. The reader and the wiring to the brain could also have a break in them, triggering the system. Sometimes worn ignition switches will lose contact with the key inside the switch.

The alarm is engineered to render the car immobile if tampered with. But a Dealer can Electronically recode a new Chip key to match

CAR ALARM ISSUES


It can be any of the car doors not got properly locked or the door is locked but the switch is not sensing the door locked. Open and close each door again properly.

Or else its problem with any of switch wiring getting in contact with alarm wiring causing it to happen.

And last thing alarm connections need to be inspected. It's getting short somewhere in between.


There are few help links with solutions, to troubleshoot these types of problems. I suggest going through these links.

Which is the #4 piston on a2005 Ford Escape?

This depends on which engine you have. If your Escape is a 4 cylinder, #4 piston is the one closest to the battery. If you have a V6, it is the one closest to the passenger side headlight.
