    running out of ideas, i opened the trunk and cimbed in to open the driverside door to disconnected the battery for a while thinking that would rest everything and the alarm wouldn't be set. when i hooked the battery back up the alarm went off right away.
    are there any fuse or relay i can pull out to stop this and drive the car??
    the car does start up but i didn't try driving it any were thinking the alarm would kill it.

    nobody is responding to these threads and im lost for assistance as well. mine is having a similar issue where the key fob will not disengage the alarm system. my chip inside is broken with no battery and has not given me problems till now. i unlock the hatch and it disengages the alarm, but while driving, rarely reengages the alarm and sounds the horn then the hatch finally locks up again lol. HELPP!!
